Steve Forbert - In The Jailhouse Now слова песни




VERSEI had a friend called Ramblin` BobHe used to steal and gamble and robHe thought he was the smartest man aroundBut I found out last MondayThey locked him up on SundayThey`ve got him in the jailhouse way downtownCHORUS #1 He`s in the jailhouse nowThe jailhouse nowI warned him once or twiceQuit playin` cards and shootin` the diceHe`s in the jailhouse nowVERSEWell, he played that game called pokerPinochle, whist and euchreBut shooting dice, lord, it was his greatest gameSo now he`s down in jailNobody to go his bailThe judge done said that he refused a fineCHORUS #2 He`s in the jailhouse nowThe jailhouse nowI warned him once or twiceYou better quit playin` the cards and shootin` the diceHe`s in the jailhouse now(YODEL)VERSEWell, I went out last TuesdayI met a gal named SusieTold her I was the swellest man aroundWe started spendin` my moneyShe started callin` me honeyWe took in every cabaret in townCHORUS #3We`re in the jailhouse nowIn the jailhouse nowYou know I told that judge right to his faceI couldn`t stand to see his placeWe`re in the jailhouse now(YODEL OUT)Jimmie RodgersPeer Southern MusicOH, CAMILLE VERSEBurnin` candles, watchin` shadowsLong hours melt away in spider townSultry ev`nings, whisperin` windowsI sit and listen to the rain come down CHORUSOh, Camille, read all about it in my letterOh, Camille ...VERSEHowlin` wolves out chasin` deer makeDark, ugly pictures for my soul to seePale pianos leave me wond`rin`"How go these nights of yours in Italy?"(REPEAT CHORUS)VERSETook a walk down flights of stairs, IWent out to wander where the rain has beenSaw a madman preachin` tombstonesI`m feelin` better `bout the shape I`m in(REPEAT CHORUS)BRIDGEAin`t got no jokes to tellJust lotsa books to readWild hearts an` traffic soundsAll poundin` ev`rywhereIt`s electricityIt`s flowin` into meI am at home in hereThese blues are right for me(INSTRUMENTAL OUT)
