I had a friend named CampbellHe used to rob, steal and gambleHe tried everything that was low-downHe was out tom-cattin' one nightWhen he started a big fight Then a big policeman came and knocked him down.He's in the jailhouse nowHe's in the jailhouse nowI told him over againTo quit drinking whiskeyLay off of that ginHe's in the jailhouse now. [Yodel]Campbell broke jail one dayDecided he'd go awayBut the police met him at the trainThe cop says I've come for youCampbell says that this won't doBecause Campbell never my name.He's in the jailhouse nowHe's in the jailhouse nowYes, he broke outAll over town the fool walked aboutHe's in the jailhouse now. [Yodel]SongtexteI met his old gal SadieShe said, ?Have you seen my baby??I told her he was downtown in the canShe went down to the jailJust to go his bailShe said, ?I've come down here to get my man.?She's in the jailhouse nowShe's in the jailhouse nowSo you can understandWhy old kid Sadie's in the canShe's in the jailhouse now.
