Generate meaning
1
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues
2
Till you get within four walls
3
And the jailer man turns that big black key
4
That's when your spirit falls
5
Then you drag yourself up to the bars
6
And while you gaze out at the stars
7
This is what you say
8
Why did I stray from the righteous path
9
Nobody knows but me
10
There on the outside you all can laugh
11
I don't need your sympathy
12
For after I'm paid for the liquor I've sold
13
Gonna leave this place worth my weight in gold
14
So, why did I stray from the righteous path
15
Nobody knows but me
16
When you realize that you're all alone
17
Sittin' in a two-by-four
18
That little cell is just a taste of hell
19
If you ain't been there before
20
Well' you're locked up tight
21
But they treat you fair
22
You get everything that you need in there
23
That's just why I say
24
Why did I stray from the righteous path
25
Nobody knows but me
26
There on the outside you all can laugh
27
I don't need your sympathy
28
For after I'm paid for the liquor I've sold
29
Gonna leave this place worth my weight in gold
30
So why did I stray from the righteous path
31
Nobody knows but me
