Lucinda Williams Lyrics for Song: Jailhouse Tears
 Lyrics for Album: Little Honey [2008]
 
 
 
 20265>I'm crying jailhouse tears
 
 And I've been trying all these years
 
 I'm trying to ride things out but now I've shifted gears
 
 And we're both crying jailhouse tears
 
 
 
 They say I broke the law
 
 Now everything's broken down
 
 Babe, I know what I saw
 
 I know you went downtown
 
 
 
 They locked me up
 
 And you locked me out
 
 You tried to steal my truck but
 
 That's not what this is about
 
 
 
 I just went to the corner
 
 To get a cold six pack
 
 You're a drunk, you're a stoner
 
 You never came back
 
 
 
 I used to be a user
 
 Now I'm out of stuff
 
 You're a three time loser
 
 You're all fucked up
 
 
 
 And I'm crying jailhouse tears
 
 And I've been trying all these years
 
 I'm trying to ride things out but now I've shifted 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
 
 And you're behind bars
 
 
 
 And I'm crying jailhouse tears
 
 And I've been trying all these years
 
 Been trying to ride things out but now I've shifted gears
 
 And we're both crying jailhouse tears
 
 
 
 I'm crying jailhouse tears
 
 And I've been trying all these years
 
 I'm trying to ride things out but now I've shifted gears
 
 And we're both crying jailhouse tears
 
 We're both crying jailhouse tears
