Jesse James was a lad That killed many a man He robbed the Glendale train He stole from the rich And he gave to the poor He'd a hand and a heart and a brain Well it was Robert Ford That dirty little coward I wonder now how he feels For he ate of Jesse's bread And he slept on Jesse's bed And he laid poor Jesse in his grave Well Jesse had a wife To mourn for his life Three children now They were brave Well that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard He laid poor Jesse in his grave Well Jesse was a man A friend to the poor He'd never rob a mother or a child There never was a man with The law in his hand That could take Jesse James when alive Well Jesse had a wife To mourn for his life Three children now They were brave Well that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard He laid poor Jesse in his grave It was on a Saturday night When the moon was shining bright They robbed the Glendale train And people they did say O'er many miles away It was those outlaws Frank and Jesse James Well Jesse had a wife To mourn for his life Three children now They were brave But that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard He laid poor Jesse in his grave Now the people held their breath When they heard of Jesse's death They wondered how he'd ever Come to fall Robert Ford it's a fact He shot Jesse in the back While Jesse hung a picture on the wall Jesse went to rest With his head on his breast The devil upon his knee He was born one day In the County Clay And he came from a Solitary race Well Jesse had a wife To mourn for his life Three children now They were brave Well that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard He laid poor Jesse in his grave | JESSE IL BANDITO Jesse è un fuorilegge Un diavolo con la pistola Una leggenda giù nel vecchio West Assaltava banche ponti e diligenze E scorribande sulla ferrovia Rubava l’oro ai aiutava i poveri Aveva mano cuore ed un cervello Nessun sceriffo mai sarebbe riuscito A prender vivo Jesse il bandito Jesse aveva moglie e tre bambini coraggiosi Che piansero per lui è stato Robert Ford Appena dopo cena con un colpo alla schiena Era sabato sera e la luna risplendeva Derubò il treno per Glenville La gente disse che erano stati loro Jesse e la sua banda di Quantrill Dal Texas al Missuri Wanted ricercato Yankee e nordisti han beffato Nessun sceriffo mai sarebbe riuscito A prender vivo Jesse il bandito Jesse aveva moglie e tre bambini coraggiosi Che piansero per lui è stato Robert Ford Appena dopo cena con un colpo alla schiena La gente corse in strada e trattenne il respiro Ma la notizia arrivò hanno ucciso Jesse L’hanno tradito e alle spalle gli hanno sparato Dissero che è stato uno della banda A mettere Jesse nella tomba è stato Mr Ford Quel piccolo codardo per qualche dollaro in più Jesse aveva moglie e tre bambini coraggiosi Che piansero per lui è stato Robert Ford Appena dopo cena con un colpo alla schiena |
