Jesse James - Woody Guthrie
Just about the worst gun battle
ever out on the western plains
When me and a bunch of cowboys
went running with Jesse James
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Run into Jesse James, boys,
run into Jesse James
The guns went off like thunder
and the bullets fell like rain
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
The guns went off like lightning
and the bullets fell like hail
Was on our way to Denver on the old Dodge City trail
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
And in that bloody battle
with Frank and Jesse James
My partners fell around me
with bullets in their brains
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Frank and Jesse James, boys,
they robbed that midnight mail
The bank and express station
and broke the county jail
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
If you're afraid to fight, boys,
if you're afraid to die
You'd better stay out of the Badlands
where the red hot bullets fly
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
If you're afraid of dying,
if you're afraid of death
You'd better stay at home, boys,
stay out of Jesse's path
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Come a cow-cow yicky,
come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
