Wild Bill Jones |
As I went down for to take a little walk |
I came upon that Wild Bill Jones |
He was a-walkin'and a-talkin'by my true lover’s side |
And I bid him to leave her alone |
He said, «My age is twenty-one, |
Too old to be controlled.» |
I pulled my revolver from my side |
And I destroyed that poor boys soul |
He reeled and he staggered then he fell to the ground |
And then he gave one giant moan |
He wrapped his arms around my little girl’s neck |
Saying, «Honey, won’t you carry me home.» |
So put them handcuffs on me boys |
And lead me to that freight car gate |
I have no friends or relations there |
No one for to go my bail |
So pass around that ol’longneck bottle |
And we’ll all go on a spree |
Today saw the last of Wild Bill Jones |
And tomorrow’ll be the last of me |
