Jesse James was a lad who killed many a man
He robbed the Glendale train
He stole from the rich and gave to the poor
He'd a hand and a heart and a brain
Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life
Three children, they were brave
But that dirty little coward that shot Mister Howard
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave
ย
It was his brother Frank that robbed the Gallatin Bank
And carried the money from the town
It was in this very place that they had a little race
For they shot Captain Sheets to the ground
Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life
Three children, they were brave
But that dirty little coward that shot Mister Howard
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave
ย
It was on a Saturday night, Jesse was at home
Talking with his family brave
Robert Ford came along like a thief in the night
And laid poor Jesse in his grave
Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life
Three children, they were brave
But that dirty little coward that shot Mister Howard
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave
