Jailhouse Tears - Lucinda Williams

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

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
