Ain't Living Long Like This

Lyrics

I looked for trouble and I found it, son
 Straight down the barrel of a law man'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 long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
 He stuck the handcuffs behind my back
 And left me reeling on a steel reel rack
 They got em all in the jailhouse baby
 Ain't living long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
 Grew up in Texas on the wayside drive
 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
 Ain't living long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
 You know the story how the wheel goes round
 Don't let them take you to the man downtown
 They got em all in the jailhouse baby
 Ain't living long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
 ♪
 I live for 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 long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
 You know the story of the jailhouse rock
 You wanna do it but just don't get caught
 They got em all in the jailhouse baby
 Ain't living long like this
 Ain't living long like this, and my baby
