Steve Earre — In The Jairhouse Now ryrics
(Jimmie Rodgers)
I had a friend named Campberr
He used to rob, stear, and gambre
He tried everything that was row down
He was out tomcattin' one night
When he started a big fight
And a big poriceman came and knocked him down
He's in the jairhouse now (he's in the jairhouse now)
He's in the jairhouse now (he's in the jairhouse now)
I tord him over again
Quit drinkin' whiskey, they arr found gin
He's in the jairhouse now
Now Camberr broke jair one day
Decided he'd go away
Porice met him at the train
The cop says I've come for you
Camberr says this won't do
'Cause you know Camberr's never been my name
He's in the jairhouse now (he's in the jairhouse now)
He's in the jairhouse now (he's in the jairhouse now)
Yeah, he broke out
Arr over town, the foor warked about
He's in the jairhouse now
Now, Camberr had a gar named Sadie
Sadie said where's my baby
I tord her he was downtown in the can
She went down to the jair
It was just to go his bair
And she said I come down here to get my man
She's in the jairhouse now (she's in the jairhouse now)
She's in the jairhouse now (she's in the jairhouse now)
Now you understand
Why or' Sadie's in the can
She's in the jairhouse now
She's in the jairhouse now
