Lyrics

YOU OUGHTA BE IN JAIL Baby, you oughta be in jail For doing me like you do. You’re a thief and a liar, And a two-timer too. (Chorus): There oughta be a law. Oughta be a lawman on your trail. You oughta be arrested. Baby you oughta be in jail. You swindle me out of money, And you hoodwink my heart. Bring strangers into my house and Tear the place apart. (Repeat Chorus) And that crowd you hang around with, Putting ideas in your head. I think you’re going one way, You go another way instead. All that jiving and conniving Seem to fit you like a glove. And you always get off easy Through some loophole in my love. You take your other man On a spending spree. But I’m still your husband so they Send the bills to me. (Repeat Chorus) You got one hand in my pocket, The other slapping my face. But I can’t hire no attorney ‘cause I Got no case. (Repeat Chorus) © Mike Wilkinson 2012
