I look 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 a dead man friend |
|
Ain't living long like this |
|
Can't live at all like this, can i baby? |
|
He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back |
|
And left me reeling on a steel reel rack |
|
They got'em all in the jailhouse baby |
|
Ain't living long like this |
|
Can't live at all like this, can i baby? |
|
Grew up in Houston off the wayside drives |
|
Son of a carhop and some all night dives |
|
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 live at all like this, can i baby? |
|
You know the story how the wheel goes 'round |
|
Don't let them take you to the man down town |
|
Can't sleep at all in a jailhouse baby |
|
Ain't living long like this |
|
Can't live at all like this, can i baby? |
|
I live with Angel she's a roadhouse queen |
|
Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee |
|
I want to love her but i don't know how |
|
I'm at the bottom in the jailhouse now |
|
Ain't living long like this |
|
Can't live at all like this, can i baby? |
|
You know the story about the jailhouse rock |
|
Don't want to do it but just don't get caught |
|
They got'em all in the jailhouse baby |
|
Ain't living long like this |
|
Can't live at all like this, can i baby? |
