George Goss - Ain't No Honkytonks In Jail lyrics

Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail No cigarettes, they read your mail You can’t hear the jukebox wail Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Ain’t no dancin’ goin’ on No guitar pickin’ all night long Nobody’s here to pay my bail Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail There ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Should have walked that straight and narrow trail My freedom’s gone and I live in Hell Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Give me three square meals a day Some commissary and a place to lay There’s twenty-one men in a ten man cell Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail I read the Good Book, I’ve got time I’d love to see that neon sign I’d love to hear that jukebox wail

Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail There ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Should have walked that straight and narrow trail My el Camino’s up for sale Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail They turned me loose on work release I didn’t come back, they sent Police Said “Boy you’ll be in here a spell” Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail There ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Should have walked that straight and narrow trail The old man thinks that I have failed Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail There ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail Should have walked that straight and narrow trail My car’s impounded and for sale Ain’t no Honky Tonks in jail
