Jimmie Rodgers
In the Jailhouse Now · 1928 · via Guy Clark
Jimmie Rodgers wrote it and put it on record in 1928, and Webb Pierce, Johnny Cash and Hank Snow all took a turn before Guy did. Hear where it started, then follow how far it walked.

Waylon Jennings
Good Hearted Woman · 1971 · via Guy Clark
Waylon cut it first, but Willie Nelson is on the credit too, and the song kept turning up: the two of them together, The Highwaymen, even Tina Turner. Follow Willie and you'll find this tune was only one of the doors he left open.
