C
You looked for trouble and you found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
C
You tried to run but I don't think you can
C
You make one move and you're a dead man friend
F
Ain't living long like this
C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
G
He slipped the handcuffs on behind your back
And left me freezing on a steel rail track
F
They got'em all in the jailhouse baby
C
I Ain't living long like this
C
Grew 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
F
I Ain't living long like this
C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
G
You know the story how the wheel goes 'round
Don't let them take you to the man downtown
F
They got ie all in the jailhouse baby
C
Ain't living long like this
Can't live at all like this can i baby
SOLO
C
You live with Angel she's a roadhouse queen
C
Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee
C
You want to love her but you don't know how
Your at the bottom in the jailhouse now
F
Ain't living long like this
C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
G
You know the story about the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it but just don't get caught
F
Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse baby
C
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
