Lyrics
Living in the County Jail
By John Matthews
Chorus
Living in the County Jail
I don't know why I'm there
Just living in the County Jail
But don't know why I'm there
Verse 1
Police they locked me up
I told them I'm not the guy
Now I'm sitting here
And wondering why
Chorus
Verse 2
Will someone pay my bail?
So I can get out of jail
Go back and live my life
And everything will be alright
Chorus
Verse 3
I been stuck in here for days
I'm losing all my pay
I sitting here alone
I wish I could go home
Chorus
