Jailhouse Tears — Lucinda Williams

Chorus

I'm crying, jailhouse tears And I've been trying all these years Been trying to ride things out But now I'm shifting gears And we're both crying jailhouse tears

They say I broke the law Now everything is broken down Babe I know what I saw I know you went downtown.

I went to the corner To get a cold six pack You're a drunk you're a stoner You never came back.

They locked me up And you locked me out You tried to steal my truck, but That's not what this is about

I used to be a user But now I'm all out of stuff You're a 3 time loser You're all fucked up

Chorus

He and She together I'm crying, jailhouse tears And I've been trying all these years Been trying to ride things out But now I'm shifting gears And we're both crying jailhouse tears

I'll prove it to you somehow I'm done with every bit Look at me, I'm clean now

You're so full of shit I swear I will tell all Look in my dresser drawers

Now I'm behind the 8-ball You're behind bars.
