It was on a Sunday night
The moon shining bright
They rode through a dreamy land
And the people they did say
For many miles away
Were the outlaws Frank and Jesse James
Oh, Jesse had a wife
Two more for his life
The children they were brave
But that dirty little coward
Who shot Mr. Howard
He laid poor Jesse in his grave
It was with his brother Frank
That they robbed the Galpin bank
And the Glendale stage
And the people they did say
For many miles away
Was the outlaws Frank and Jesse James
Oh, Jesse had a wife
Two more for his life
The children they were brave
But that dirty little coward
Who shot Mr. Howard
He laid poor Jesse in his grave
