Jesse James - Pete Seeger[00:00:00]
Written by:Alan Lomax/Traditional[00:00:00]
Jesse James was a lad[00:00:09]
He killed many a man[00:00:12]
He robbed the Glendale train[00:00:15]
He took from the rich[00:00:19]
And he gave to the poor[00:00:21]
He'd a hand and a heart[00:00:24]
And a brain[00:00:26]
Oh Jesse had a wife[00:00:28]
To mourn for his life[00:00:31]
Three children they were brave[00:00:34]
That dirty little coward[00:00:38]
That shot Mr. Howard[00:00:41]
He laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:00:43]
It was on a Saturday night[00:00:48]
And the moon[00:00:50]
Was shining bright[00:00:51]
They robbed the Glendale train[00:00:53]
For the agent on his knees delivered up the keys[00:00:57]
To the outlaws Frank an' Jesse James[00:01:02]
Oh Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life[00:01:07]
Three children they were brave[00:01:11]
But that dirty little coward that shot Mr. Joward[00:01:16]
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:01:21]
All the people held their breath when they heard of Jesse's death[00:01:44]
They wondered how he ever come to fall[00:01:49]
Robert Ford it was a fact[00:01:53]
Shot Jesse in the back[00:01:56]
While Jesse hung a picture on the wall[00:01:58]
Oh Jesse had a wife[00:02:03]
To mourn for his life[00:02:05]
Three children[00:02:08]
They were brave[00:02:09]
Well that dirty little coward[00:02:13]
That shot Mr. Howard[00:02:15]
He laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:02:18]
Jesse was a man[00:02:22]
A friend to the poor[00:02:25]
He'd never rob a mother or a child[00:02:27]
He took from the rich[00:02:32]
And he gave to the poor[00:02:34]
He shot Jesse James on the sly[00:02:38]
Oh Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life[00:02:42]
Three children[00:02:47]
They were brave[00:02:49]
But that dirty little coward[00:02:52]
That shot Mr. Howard[00:02:55]
He's laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:02:57]
This song was made by Billy Gashade[00:03:07]
As soon as the news did arrive[00:03:12]
He said there was no man with the law in his hand[00:03:16]
Who could take Jesse James alive[00:03:21]
Oh Jesse had a wife[00:03:26]
To mourn for his life[00:03:28]
Three children[00:03:31]
They were brave[00:03:32]
Well that dirty little coward[00:03:35]
That shot Mr. Howard[00:03:38]
He laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:03:40]
Oh Jesse had a wife[00:04:02]
To mourn for his life[00:04:05]
Three children[00:04:07]
They were brave[00:04:09]
Well that dirty little coward[00:04:12]
That shot Mr. Howard[00:04:14]
He's laid poor Jesse in his grave[00:04:17]
