Steve Earle - In The Jail House Now lyrics

Your rating:

I had a friend named campbell
He used to rob, steal, and gamble
He tried everything that was low down
He was out tomcattin one night
When he started a big fight
And a big policeman came and knocked him down

Hes in the jailhouse now (hes in the jailhouse now)
Hes in the jailhouse now (hes in the jailhouse now)
I told him over again
Quit drinkin whiskey, they all found gin
Hes in the jailhouse now

Now cambell broke jail one day
Decided hed go away
Police met him at the train
The cop says Ive come for you
Cambell says this wont do
cause you know cambells never been my name

Hes in the jailhouse now (hes in the jailhouse now)
Hes in the jailhouse now (hes in the jailhouse now)
Yeah, he broke out
All over town, the fool walked about
Hes in the jailhouse now

Now, cambell had a gal named sadie
Sadie said wheres my baby
I told her he was downtown in the can
She went down to the jail
It was just to go his bail
And she said I come down here to get my man

Shes in the jailhouse now (shes in the jailhouse now)
Shes in the jailhouse now (shes in the jailhouse now)
Now you understand
Why ol sadies in the can
Shes in the jailhouse now

Shes in the jailhouse now
