I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob
He used to steal, gamble, and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They 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
He played a game called poker, pinochle, whist, and euchre
But shooting dice was his greatest game
Now, he's downtown in jail
Got nobody to go his bail
The judge did rule that he refuse 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
I went out last Tuesday
I met a girl named Suzy
I said I was the swellest man around
We started to spend my money
She started to call me honey
We took in every cabaret in town
We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
Well, I told that judge right to his face
I don't like to see this place
We're in the jailhouse now
He used to steal, gamble, and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They 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
He played a game called poker, pinochle, whist, and euchre
But shooting dice was his greatest game
Now, he's downtown in jail
Got nobody to go his bail
The judge did rule that he refuse 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
I went out last Tuesday
I met a girl named Suzy
I said I was the swellest man around
We started to spend my money
She started to call me honey
We took in every cabaret in town
We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
Well, I told that judge right to his face
I don't like to see this place
We're in the jailhouse now
