Charley Pride - In The Jailhouse Now lyrics

[Charley Pride - In The Jailhouse Now lyrics]

I had a friend named The Ramblin' Bob
Who used to steal, gamble, and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy around
But I found out last Monday
That Bob got locked up Sunday
They've got him in the
Jailhouse way downtown

He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Well I told him once or twice
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Ah di o dalee eehee dee-o ti
Ah di o dalee ee oh dee-o ti yodelayee hee
Yodelayee hee yodelay-eeee

He played a game called poker
Pinochle, whist and euchre
But shootin' dice was his favorite game
Now he's downtown in the jail
Nobody to go his bail
The judge done said that he refused the fine

He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Well I told him once or twice
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now

Ah di o dalee eehee dee-o ti
Ah di o dalee ee oh dee-o ti yodelayee hee
Yodelayee hee yodelay-eeee
I went out last Tuesday
Met a gal a named Susie
I told her I was the swellest man around

We started to spend my money
Then she started in a callin me honey
We took in every cabaret in town

We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
Well I told him once or twice
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
We're in the jailhouse now

Ah di o dalee eehee dee-o ti
Ah di o dalee ee oh dee-o ti yodelayee hee
Yodelayee hee yodelay-eeee
