J.J. Sneed

Lyrics

At last I have called up with you and you're a sight to see
 Could this really be my outlaw lover J.J. Sneed
 Could a woman with a painted face and pretty sweet disguise
 Turn your heart against me with her evil cunning eyes, her evil cunning eyes
 J.J. it's been you and me right from the very start
 And every job we ever pulled I'd always done my part
 We'd really stick together until the bitter end
 And it was my understanding we were whole lots more than friends
 A whole lot more than friends
 And it was me that kept you on when nights were dark and cold
 But I guess I didn't look like much in these old ragged clothes
 But you said it didn't matter cause you love me that a way
 You said that no one else could ever steal your heart away, steal your heart away
 ♪
 Do you recall the Union Bank we robbed in Franklin Town
 And as we made our getaway the sheriff gunned you down
 And I doctored up your bullet wounds and nursed you while you sit
 But now you have betrayed me is that the thanks I get, is that the thanks I get
 Oh yeah J.J. I'm thinking now of how we'd all begun
 Of all the times we've robbed and killed with our trust wordy gun
 Why we stood off a fuss it was J.J. just you and I
 But now you have betrayed me and for that you're gonna die
 Yeah for that you're gonna die
 The good old days are over as we stand here in the rain
 J.J. I'm gonna shoot you now I hope you'll feel no pain
 I hear whoopees of the horses and fieces on my trail
 I guess I'll join you soon but for now J.J. farewell, for now J.J. farewell
