I had a friend named Campbell
He used to rob, steal and gamble
He tried everything that was low-down
He was out tom-cattin' one night
When he started a big fight
Then a big policeman came and knocked him down
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
I told him over again
To quit drinking whiskey, lay off of that gin
He's in the jailhouse now
[Yodeling]
Campbell broke jail one day
Decided he'd go away
But the police met him at the train
The cop says, "I've come for you"
Campbell says that "This won't do
Because Campbell never was my name"
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Yes, he broke out
All over town the fool walked about
He's in the jailhouse now
He used to rob, steal and gamble
He tried everything that was low-down
He was out tom-cattin' one night
When he started a big fight
Then a big policeman came and knocked him down
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
I told him over again
To quit drinking whiskey, lay off of that gin
He's in the jailhouse now
