For the last six years, Jesse James has led this outlaw band,
picking his way on the thoroughbred grade through the trails of this southern land
with a gun in his hand.
With an old bandana around his face, wrapped in a soldier's cloak,
he's made a stand for the common man, suffering the rich man's yoke,
[G] stood for the common folk, for the common folk.
Well, you either live poor outside of the law,
then they run you down, turn you down, and put you in the [D] Hall of Fame.
[G] I've heard them say, it's the price you pay,
you give your life to live, you like to live it like a [D] ball of flame.
A [C]-ridin' and a-hidin' and a-runnin' with [D] Jesse James.
In a Kentucky bank, I watched his eyes, they were hard as furnished steel.
He'd bust through the door with a .44,
spinnin' it like a wheel, like a wagon wheel.
You never could tell what was in his head or what he'd plan next time.
If we're fightin' for a forgotten cause or to keep our pockets lined,
we don't really mind, hell, we don't mind.
[G] Well, you either live poor outside of the law,
then they run you down, turn you down, and put you in the Hall [D] of Fame.
[G] I've heard them say, it's the price you pay,
you give your life to live, you like to live it like a ball [D] of flame.
A-ridin' and a-hidin' [G] and a-runnin' with Jesse [D] James.

Right on, son.
