In The Jailhouse Now
Johnny Cash

C#
I had a friend named bill camel he used to rob steel and gamble
                                        F#
And on the side he would beg so he more tough

I told him he shouldn’t do it, and camel told me he knew it
      G#7                                         C#
So he started thinking with a bucket instead of a cup

N.C.                  C#                         F#
He’s in the jailhouse now; He’s in the jailhouse now
     G#
Well camel fluffed his duff when he wore a tuxedo to the country club
                      C#
He’s in the jailhouse now


I met his old gal Sadie; she said have you seen Bill lately
                                      F#
I said that I don’t believe that he’s about

She went down to the jail; she went down to take him his mail
     G#7                                        C#
Then she whispered Sheriff please don’t let him out

N.C.                  C#                         F#
He’s in the jailhouse now; He’s in the jailhouse now
      G#
While Camels’ put away, Sadie with the sheriff everyday
                      C#
He’s in the jailhouse now

Well I remember the last election, the prohibitionists were in action
 They was trying to elect themselves a president
Bill Camel and John Austin, walked from New Orleans to Boston
And they got them a bottle in every settlement

He’s in the jailhouse now; He’s in the jailhouse now
They were down at the railroad track, stealin’ a train to hall it back
He’s in the jailhouse now
