Title: I Ain't Living Long Like This

---------------------

I looked for trouble and I found it son

Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun

I tried to run but I don't think I can

You make one move and you're dead man's friend

Ain't living long like this

I can't live at all like this, hey now baby

They slipped the handcuffs on behind your back

Leave you freezing on a steel rail rack

Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse, baby

Ain't living long like this, hey now baby

Grew up in Houston off of Wayside drive

Son of a car hop in some all night dive

Dad drove a stock car to an early death

All I remember was a drunk man's breath

Ain't living long like this

Can't sleep at all like this, hey now baby

We know the story how the wheel goes round

Don't let 'em take you to the man downtown

They've got 'em all in the jailhouse, baby

Ain't living long like this, hey now baby

I live for Angel, she's a roadhouse queen

Make Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee

I want to love her but I don't know how

I'm at the bottom of the jailhouse now

Ain't living long like this

Can't sleep at all like this, hey now baby

You know the story 'bout the jailhouse rock

Go on and do it, but just don't get caught

They got 'em all in the jailhouse, baby

Ain't living long like this, hey now baby

Ain't living long like this, hey now baby

I can't sleep at all in the jailhouse
