I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob He used to steal gamblin' rocks
He thought he was the smartest [E] guy around Well I found out last Monday
That Bob got locked up Sunday [C#] They've got him in the jailhouse way [F#] downtown
He's [B] in the jailhouse now He's in the [E] jailhouse now
Well [F#] I told him once or twice To stop playing cards and shooting dice
He's in the [B] jailhouse now
