Various Artists - In the Jailhouse Now

I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob

He used to steal, gamble, and Rob

He thought he was the smartest guy around

Well 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 stop playin' cards and a-shootin' dice

He's in the jailhouse now

(yodel)

Ah di o-dalee eehee dee-o ti

Ah di o-dalee ee oh dee-o ti

Yodelayee-hee

Yodelayee-hee

Yodelay-eeee

Bob like to play his Poker

Pinochle, Whist and Euchre

But shootin' dice

Was his favorite game

But he got throwed in jail

With 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 stop playin' cards and a-shootin' dice

He's in the jailhouse now

(yodel)

Ah di o-dalee eehee hee

Ah di o-dalee eehee hee

Yodelayee-hee

Yodelayee-hee

Yodelay-eeee

Well I went out last Tuesday

Met a girl named Susie

I said I was the swellest guy around

Well, we started to spendin' my money

And she started to callin' me honey

We took in every cabaret in town

We're in the jailhouse now

We're in the jailhouse now

I told that judge right to his face

I don't like to see this place

We're in the jailhouse now

(yodel)

Ah di o-dalee eehee o hee

Ah di o-dalee eehee deeo ti

Yodelayee-hee

Yodelayee-hee

Ah Yodelay-eeee
