He's in the ioilhouse now
He's in the iailhouse now
I told him once or twice
To quit playin' cords

And shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well I had a friend
Named ramblin' Bob

Who used to steal,
Gamble and rob
He thought he was

The smartest guy in town
But I found out
Last Monday

Thai Bob got
Locked up Sunday
They got him

In the iailhouse
Way downtown
He's in the ioilhouse now

He's in the iailhouse now
I told him once or twice
To quit playin' cords

And shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
(Instrumental Break)
Well I went out
Last Tuesday
Met a girl named Susie

I told her I was
The swellesf man around
Well she started in
To spend my money

She started in to
Call me honey
We took in every

Honky-fonk in town
We're in the ioilhouse now

We're in the jailhouse now
They told us once or 1wice
To quit playin' cards

And shootin' dice

We're in he iailhouse now
