Ain¡¯t Livin¡¯ Long Like This
I looked for trouble and found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman¡¯s gun
I¡¯d try to run but I don¡¯t think I can
If I move I¡¯m a dead man
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
He slipped the cuffs on behind my back
Then left me freezing on a steel rail rack
They got ¡®em all in the jailhouse don¡¯t they baby
I ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
Can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
Grew up in Houston off a wayside drive
Son of a carhop in an all-night dive
He drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember is a drunk man¡¯s breath
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
We know the story how the wheel goes ¡®round
Don¡¯t let ¡®em take you to the man downtown
I can¡¯t sleep at all in the jailhouse can I baby
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
I live for Angel she¡¯s the roadhouse queen
Make 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 livin¡¯ long like this
I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
You know the story ¡®bout the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it just don¡¯t get caught
They got ¡®em all in the jailhouse don¡¯t they baby
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this
I swear I can¡¯t live at all like this can I baby
Oh baby
Take it home for me
Ain¡¯t livin¡¯ long like this am I baby
