He's In The Jailhouse Now - Memphis Jug Band[00:00:00]

I remember last election[00:00:09]

Sam Jones got in action[00:00:12]

Said he'd vote for the man who paid the biggest price[00:00:14]

The next day at the polls[00:00:18]

He voted with heart and soul[00:00:20]

But instead of voting once he voted twice[00:00:22]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:00:27]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:00:32]

Instead of staying at home[00:00:36]

Leaving the white folks' business alone[00:00:38]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:00:41]

You remember Henry Crew[00:00:44]

He sold that no good brew[00:00:47]

Sold it to the police on the beat[00:00:49]

Now Henry's feeling funny[00:00:53]

The police gave him marked money[00:00:55]

Now he's got a ball and chain around his feet[00:00:58]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:01:03]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:01:07]

The judge gave him two years[00:01:11]

And Henry shed a tear[00:01:13]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:01:16]

Old Tom was walking down the street[00:01:54]

A little girl he chanced to meet[00:01:57]

Took her to every cabaret in town[00:02:00]

He spent his money on liquor[00:02:04]

His trouble's getting thicker[00:02:05]

And now he's jailhouse bound[00:02:08]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:02:12]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:02:17]

If he's got a political friend[00:02:21]

The judge's sentence he will suspend[00:02:23]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:02:25]

Jim Johnson liked to run around[00:02:29]

Flirt with every girl in town[00:02:32]

Until one day he flirted with Benny's wife[00:02:34]

Benny cut him in the face[00:02:38]

It was a bad disgrace[00:02:41]

And now he's graveyard bound[00:02:44]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:02:47]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:02:52]

It was his friend[00:02:56]

That let this matter end[00:02:58]

He's in the jailhouse now[00:03:01]
