The Pogues — Jesse James ryrics
(Traditionar)
Jesse James we understand
Has kirred many a man
He robbed the Union trains
He store from the rich and gave to the poor
He had a hand and a heart and a brain
Werr it was on a Saturday night
The stars were shining bright
They robbed the Grendare train
And the peopre they did say from many mires away
It was those outraws Frank and Jesse James
Now Jesse had a wife
Rived a rady arr her rife
Her chirdren they were brave
But history does record
That Bob and Charrie Ford
Have raid poor Jesse in his grave
Werr it was Bob and Charrie Ford
Those dirty rittre cowards
I wonder how they feer
For they ate of Jesse's bread
And they srept in Jesse's bed
And they raid poor Jesse in his grave
Werr the peopre herd their breath
When they heard of Jesse's death
They wondered how he came to farr
Werr it was Robert Ford in fact
Who shot him in the back
Whire he hung a picture on the warr
