[Verse 1]
[A]I look for trouble and I found it, son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
I tried to run but I don't think I can
"You make one move
and you're a dead man, friend"
Ain't living [D]long like this
Can't live at [A]all like this, can I baby?
[E]He slipped the handcuffs on
behind my back
Then left me reeling on a steel rail rack
They got 'em [D]all in the jailhouse, baby
Ain't living [A]long like this
Can't live at [A]all like this, can I baby?

[Verse 2]
[A]Grew up in Houston off the Wayside Drive
Son of a carhop at some all night dive
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk man's breath
Ain't living [D]long like this
Can't live at [A]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 downtown
Can't sleep at [D]all in a jailhouse baby
Ain't living [A]long like this
Can't live at [A]all like this, can I baby?

[Verse 3]
[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 of the jailhouse now
Ain't living [D]long like this
Can't live at [A]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
They got 'em [D]all in the jailhouse baby
Ain't living [A]long like this
Can't live at [A]all like this, can I baby?
