[Verso 1]
I had a friend named Bill Campbell
He used to rob, steal and gamble
And on the side he'd beg
So he mopped up
Well, I told old Billy shouldn't do it
And old Bill said that he knew it
So he started begging with a bucket
Instead of a cup
[Coro]
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Now old Bill fluffed his dove
When he wrote a tuxedo to the country club
He's in the jailhouse now
[Verso 2]
Now Bill had a gal named Sadie
And she said have you seen Billy lately
No I don't believe that he's about
But old Sadie went down to the jail
It was just to pay his bail
Then she whispered
Sheriff please don't let him out
[Coro]
[Verso 3]
Oh, you remember the last election, yeah
The prohibitionists was in action
Trying to elect themselves a president
And Bill Campbell and John Austin
They rode from New Orleans to Boston
[?] bottle in every settlement
[Coro]
