paroles de chanson In The Jailhouse Now No. 2 - Jimmie Rodgers & The Rainbow Ranch Boys

I had a friend named Campbell
He used to rob, steal and gamble
He tried everything that was low-down
He was out tom-cattin' one night
When he started a big fight
Then a big policeman came and knocked him down

He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
I told him over again
To quit drinking whiskey, lay off that gin
He's in the jailhouse now

A-de-lee-de-lo-de-lei yodel-eeh-hee
Yodel-eeh-de yodel-ei yodel-eeh-hee
Yodel-ei-hee, lei-hee, de-yodel-ei

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 was 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

Oh-de-lee de-lo de-lei de-yodel-ei
Yodel-eeh de-lo de-lei de-yodel-ei
Yodel-ei-hee, de-yodelei-hee, de-yodel-ei

I met his old gal Sadie
She says, "Have you seen my baby?"
I told her he was downtown in the can
She went down to the jail
Just to go to his bail
She says, "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

Oh-de-lee de-lo de-lei de-yodel-ei
Yodel-eeh de-lo de-lei de-yodel-ei
Yodel-ei-hee, de-yodelei-hee, lei-hee-hee-ei
