Correction Lyrics In the Jailhouse Now by Jimmie Rodgers

Lyrics

Well, there once was a man named Campbell
He used to rob, steal and gamble
He tried anything that was low-down
He was out tomcattin' one night
When he got in a heck of fight
And a big policeman came and knocked him out

He's in the jailhouse now (He's in the jailhouse now)
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 (He's in the jailhouse now)
In the jailhouse now (He's in the jailhouse now)

Well, Campbell broke jail one day
Decided he'd run away
But the big policeman met him at the train
He said, "Campbell, I came for you"
And said Campbell, "That just won't do
'Cause Campbell never was my name"

Well, I seen his old gal, Sadie
She said, "Have you seen my baby?"
I told, "Him was downtown in the can"
Well, she went on down to the jail
Just to go his bail
She said, "I came down here to get my man"

She's in the jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
She's in the jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
So, I guess you can understand
When you got old Sadie, she's in the can
She's in the jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
They're in the jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)

Oh, jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
Oh, jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
Ah, jailhouse now (She's in the jailhouse now)
Ah, jailhouse now
