Jesse James

[Verse 1]
When Jesse James was a lad
He killed many a man
And he roamed over the Scarsdale range (Whoa)
Robbin' from the rich
And givin' to the poor
He was dark and cold and full of rage
Oh yes he was, sing with me

[Chorus]
Jesse had a wife
To mourn for his life
And three children
They were all so brave
But that dirty little coward
He went and shot Mr. Howard
And laid poor Jesse in his grave (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
It was on a Saturday night
When Jesse was at home
Talking to old railroad Jed (Oh)
Along come Robert Ford
Like a thief in the night
And he shot poor Jesse in the back (Oh yeah)

[Chorus]
Say, Jesse had a wife
To mourn for his life
Three children
They were all so brave
But that dirty little coward
He went and shot Mr. Howard
And laid poor Jesse in his grave (Yeah)

[Outro]
They laid him six feet under the ground
Oh, they laid him six feet under the ground
They laid him six feet under the ground
Oh, they laid him six feet under the ground
Oh, they laid him six feet under the ground
They laid him six feet under the ground
They laid him six feet under the ground
Six feet under the ground
Oh, six feet under the ground
Six feet under the ground
