As soon as I hear county jail all other songs than Jailhouse Rock are hustled violently towards the exit door of my brain

I'm now picturing you in the jailhouse having your exit door violently hustled

COR!
I may now have to lie down in a darkened room.

That must be all the more horrific for you now that you've seen pics of me
I'm so sorry

Well, that or 'Riot in Cell Block #9'
but that's even less likely.

In short, I give up.

Ah. Not one I know, I must admit.

Jailhouse Rock
actually opens with 'The warden threw a party in the county jail'.

This is not commonly known.

Yes!
Thank you Monty, that's been bugging me

I knew it though

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 28 Jun 2010, 15:38, Reply)

I think it's common amongst people that actually know the song.

Two examples of that not being so can be found
not very far away from this post ^ that-a-way

I did know this (My band used to open with it, in fact)
But it's the only well-known song I could think of with 'county jail' in the first line that I could think of. And no doubt Roota is about to tell me it's some blindingly obvious song I've completely forgotten about.
(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 28 Jun 2010, 15:41, Reply)

It has some of the gayest lyrics of any song EVER.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 28 Jun 2010, 15:43, Reply)

I know
They're all getting it on
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 28 Jun 2010, 15:44, Reply)

Which makes the line
"If you can't find a partner, use a wooden chair," frankly quite unnerving...
