| I look for trouble and I found it, son, Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun. |
| A |
| I tried to run but I don't think I can, You make one move and you're a dead man friend! |
| D | A | E7 | A |
| Ain't living long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| E |
He | slipped the handcuffs on behind my back And left me reeling on a steel reel rack. |
| D |
| They got'em all in the jailhouse baby |
| D | A | A | E7 | A |
| Ain't living | long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| A | E7 | A |
| Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| A |
| Grew up in Houston off the wayside drives, Son of a carhop and some all night dives. |
Dad drove a stock car to an early death, All I remember was a drunk man's breath. | |
| D | A | A | E7 | A |
| Ain't living | long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| E |
You | know the story how the wheel goes 'round? Don't let them take you to the man down town. |
| D |
| Can't sleep at all in a jailhouse baby |

| Ain't living | long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| A | E7 | A |
| Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| A |
| I live with Angel she's a roadhouse queen, Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee. |
I want to love her, but I don't know how, I'm at the bottom in the jailhouse now. | |
| D | A | A | E7 | A |
| Ain't living | long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
| E |
You | know the story about the jailhouse rock? Don't want to do it but just don't get caught, |
| D |
| They got'em all in the jailhouse, baby. |
| D | A | A | E7 | A |
| Ain't living | long like this; | Can't live at all like this, | can I, | baby? |
