J. J. Sneed

At last I have caught up with you and you're a sight to see

Could this really be my outlaw lover JJ 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.

JJ 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

It was my understanding we were whole lots more than friends.

A whole lot more than friends.

It was me that kept you warm 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

As we made our getaway the sheriff gunned you down

And I doctored up your bullet wounds and nursed you while you're sick

But now you have betrayed me is that the thanks I get

Is that the thanks I get.

Oh yeah, JJ 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 JJ just you and I

Now you have betrayed me and for that you're gonna die

For that you're gonna die.

The good old days are over as we stand here in the rain

JJ 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 JJ farewell for now JJ farewell

Now JJ farewell...
