In The Jailhouse 2 chords by Jimmy Rodgers


Jimmy Rodgers Chords



IN THE JAILHOUSE NOW - No. 2
Words and music by Jimmie Rodgers

[D] I had a friend named Campbell
He used to rob, steal and gamble
He tried ev'rything that was low-[G] down
He was out tom-cattin' one night
When he started a big fight 
Then a [A] big policeman [E] came and knocked him [A] down.

He's in the [D] jailhouse now
He's in the [G] jailhouse now
I [A] told him over again
To quit drinking whiskey
Lay off of that [A7] gin
He's in the [A] jailhouse [D] now. (Yodel)

Campbell broke jail one day
Decided he'd go away
But the police met him at the train
The cop says I've come for you
Campbell says that this won't do
Because Campbell never my name.

He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Yes, he broke out
All over town the fool walked about
He's in the jailhouse now. (Yodel)

I met his old gal Sadie
'She said, "Have you seen my baby"
I told her he was downtown in the can
She went down to the jail
Just to go his bail
She said, "I've come down here to get my man."

She's in the jailhouse now
She's in the jailhouse now
So you can understand
Why old kid Sadie's in the can
She's in the jailhouse now. (Yodel)
