I looked for trouble and I found it son Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun I try to run but I don't think I can You make one move and your a dead man friend Ain't livin' long like this I ain't livin' long like this, am I baby? He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back He left me breathing, I was still a rockin' Got 'em all in the jailhouse I ain't livin' long like this Grew up in Houston off the Wayside Drive Son of a cop as an all night dive That double stock got to an early death All I remember was a drunk man's breath Ain't livin' long like this Ain't livin' long like this, am I baby? We know a story how the wheel goes 'round Don't let 'em take it to the man downtown Just leave it all in the jailhouse I ain't livin' long like this --- Dueling Harmonica & Guitar Solos --- I looked for Angel, she's a roadhouse queen Make Texas Ruben look like Sandra Dee I wanna love her but I don't know how I'm at the bottom of the jailhouse now Ain't livin' long like this Ain't livin' long like this, am I baby? You know the story 'bout the jailhouse rock Go on and do it but just don't get caught I got 'em all in the jailhouse Ain't livin' long like this --- Dueling Harmonica & Guitar Solos --- I ain't livin' long like this I ain't livin' long like this Ain't livin' long like this Ain't livin' long like this, am I baby?
