You looked for trouble and you found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
CYou tried to run but I don't think you can
You make one move and you're a dead man friend
FAin't living long like this
CCan't live at all like this can I baby
He slipped the handcuffs on behind your back
And left me freezing on a steel rail track
FThey got'em all in the jailhouse baby
I Ain't living long like this
CGrew up in Houston off the wayside drive
Son of a carhop in some all night dives
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk man's breath
FI Ain't living long like this
Can't live at all like this can I baby
GYou know the story how the wheel goes 'round
Don't let them take you to the man downtown
They got ie all in the jailhouse baby
CAin't living long like this
Can't live at all like this can i baby
SOLO
You live with Angel she's a roadhouse queen
CMakes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee
CYou want to love her but you don't know how
Your at the bottom in the jailhouse now
FAin't living long like this
CCan't live at all like this can I baby
You know the story about the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it but just don't get caught
FCan't sleep at all in the jailhouse baby
Ain't living long like this
Can't live at all like this can i baby
Ain't living long like this
F C F C F C and fade out
