It was on a Wednesday night the moon was shining bright

They robbed the Glendale train

And the people they did say for many miles away

Twas the outlaws Frank and Jesse James



Jesse had a wife to mourn all her life

Their children they are brave

Twas a dirty little coward that shot Mr Howard

They laid Jesse James in his grave



It was Robert Ford the dirty little coward

I wonder how he does feel

For he ate of Jesse's bread and he slept in Jesse's bed

Then he laid Jesse James in his grave



Jesse had a wife to mourn all her life...



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 was a man a friend to the poor

He never would see a man suffer pain

And with his brother Frank he robbed the Chicago bank

And stopped the Glendale train



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 all her life...



They went to the crossing not very far from there

And there they did the same

And the agent on his knees he delivered up the keys

To the outlaws Frank and Jesse James



Jesse had a wife to mourn all her life...



It was on a Saturday night Jesse was at home

Talking to his family brave

When the thief and the coward a little Robert Ford

Laid Jesse James in his grave



How people held their breath when they heard of Jesse's death

And wondered how he ever came to die

Twas one of the gang dirty Robert Ford

That shot poor Jesse on the sly



Jesse had a wife to mourn all her life...



Jesse went to rest with his hand on his breast

The devill will be upon his knee

He was born one day in the county of Clay

And came from the solitary race



Jesse had a wife to mourn all her life...

They laid Jesse James in his grave
