[00:09.97]I remember last election
[00:12.47]Sam Jones got in action
[00:14.56]Said he'd vote for the man
[00:16.12]Who paid the biggest price
[00:19.01]The next day at the polls
[00:20.90]He voted with heart and soul
[00:23.28]But instead of voting once
[00:25.12]He voted twice
[00:28.29]He's in the jailhouse now
[00:32.83]He's in the jailhouse now
[00:36.99]Instead of staying at home
[00:38.78]Leaving the white folks'
[00:39.91]Business alone
[00:41.89]He's in the jailhouse now
[00:45.76]You remember Henry Crew
[00:47.88]He sold that no good brew
[00:50.10]He sold it to the police on the beat
[00:54.74]Now Henry's feeling funny
[00:56.82]The police gave him marked money
[00:59.71]Now he's got a ball and chain
[01:01.27]Around his feet
[01:04.29]He's in the jailhouse now
[01:08.82]He's in the jailhouse now
[01:12.85]The judge gave him two years
[01:14.95]And Henry shed a tear
[01:17.79]He's in the jailhouse now
[01:57.03]Tom was walking down the street
[01:59.52]A little girl he chanced to meet
[02:02.36]Took her to every cabaret in town
[02:06.17]He spent his money on liquor
[02:08.22]His trouble's getting thicker
[02:10.35]And now he's jailhouse bound
[02:15.24]He's in the jailhouse now
[02:19.65]He's in the jailhouse now
[02:23.55]If he's got a political friend
[02:25.92]The judge's sentence
[02:26.72]He will suspend
[02:28.66]He's in the jailhouse now
[02:32.63]Jim Johnson liked to run around
[02:35.39]Flirt with every girl in town
[02:37.54]Until one day he flirted
[02:38.58]With Benny's wife
[02:39.89]She was ugly
[02:41.52]And benny cut him in the face
[02:44.46]It was a bad disgrace
[02:47.18]But now he's graveyard bound
[02:51.02]He's in the jailhouse now
[02:55.32]He's in the jailhouse now
[02:59.76]And it was his friend
[03:01.69]That let this matter end
[03:04.40]He's in the jailhouse now
