He's In The Jailhouse Now - Memphis Jug Band-歌词

He's In The Jailhouse Now - Memphis Jug Band

I remember last election

Sam Jones got in action

Said he'd vote for the man who paid the biggest price

The next day at the polls

He voted with heart and soul

But instead of voting once he voted twice

He's in the jailhouse now

He's in the jailhouse now

Instead of staying at home

Leaving the white folks' business alone

He's in the jailhouse now

You remember Henry Crew

He sold that no good brew

Sold it to the police on the beat

Now Henry's feeling funny

The police gave him marked money

Now he's got a ball and chain around his feet

He's in the jailhouse now

He's in the jailhouse now

The judge gave him two years

And Henry shed a tear

He's in the jailhouse now

Old Tom was walking down the street

A little girl he chanced to meet

Took her to every cabaret in town

He spent his money on liquor

His trouble's getting thicker

And now he's jailhouse bound

He's in the jailhouse now

He's in the jailhouse now

If he's got a political friend

The judge's sentence he will suspend

He's in the jailhouse now

Jim Johnson liked to run around

Flirt with every girl in town

Until one day he flirted with Benny's wife

Benny cut him in the face

It was a bad disgrace

And now he's graveyard bound

He's in the jailhouse now

He's in the jailhouse now

It was his friend

That let this matter end

He's in the jailhouse now
