Jesse James 03:08
Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train The engineer's dead on the track Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train They ain't never gonna get that money back. If you're gonna set a bounty, you better set it high 'Cuz a man would be crazy to take him in alive So get that old six shooter and strap it to your thigh If you bring him in dead then you'd better aim high Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train The engineer's dead on the track Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train They ain't never gonna get that money back. One day Jesse James met old Robert Ford And as soon as Jesse's back had turned to the door Robert shot once and Jesse hit the floor And now we don't worry 'bout old Jesse anymore Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train The engineer's dead on the track Did you hear about Jesse James? He robbed that old train But Bob Ford shot him in the back!

Bounty 03:05
Pedal to the metal and the hammer to the nail, I'm gonna light a fire in the hills. Got a pistol in my hand and a bottle full of bourbon, the objective of this mission is to kill. Got a bounty to be filled I got some blood I need to spill, you know I'm gonna go and shoot the man dead When the deed is done well I'll be on the run, because I put a bullet in his head Draw boy draw, as fast as you can, my pistol and I are quicker than your hand. One bullet between the eyes is all it takes a man to die, and another man to claim his bounty filled Got a bounty to be filled I got some blood I need to spill, you know I'm gonna go and shoot the man dead When the deed is done well I'll be on the run, because I put a bullet in his head Roll train roll, down the dirty tracks, well I've made the kill and I'm never coming back. If my train rolls right I'll be in Mexico tonight with a half a million dollars in my bag Got a bounty to be filled I got some blood I need to spill, you know I'm gonna go and shoot the man dead When the deed is done well I'll be on the run, because I put a bullet in his head

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill He never worked, and he never will, And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Railroad Bill's a mighty mean man Shot the light out of the poor brakeman's hand And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Railroad Bill, lives up on a hill Lightin' a cigar with a ten-dollar bill. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Buy me a gun as long as my arm Shoot down anyone who's ever done me harm. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Got a thirty-special in a forty-five frame, I can't miss 'cause I got dead aim. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Up on a mountain, headin' way out west Thirty-eight special stickin' out of my fist. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Early one morning, just standing in the rain Round the bend come a long freight train. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. I went down to Number One When I got down there, Billy'd just begun And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Railroad Bill, before he died, He fixed the trains so the rounders could ride And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Railroad Bill's comin' home soon Shot McMillan by the light of the moon And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Kill me a chicken, send me the wing They think I'm workin', Lord, I ain't doin' a thing. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Kill me a chicken, send me the head, Think I'm workin', Lord, I'm layin' in bed. And it's ride on, Railroad Bill. Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill He never worked, Lord, and he never will, And it's ride on, Railroad Bill.
