Western movies in the late 40s often referred to the jail as the "hoosegow," and "calaboose." Gangster movies sometimes use the words "slammer," or "clink."
"Behind bars," "the lock up," "put you in a cell," "take you downtown," and sometimes facetiously "grand hotel or cozy motel" are other common expressions.
