[00:00:00] Jesse James - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)

[00:00:00] Written by：Alan Lomax/Traditional

[00:00:09] Jesse James was a lad

[00:00:12] He killed many a man

[00:00:15] He robbed the Glendale train

[00:00:19] He took from the rich

[00:00:21] And he gave to the poor

[00:00:24] He'd a hand and a heart

[00:00:26] And a brain

[00:00:28] Oh Jesse had a wife

[00:00:31] To mourn for his life

[00:00:34] Three children they were brave

[00:00:38] That dirty little coward

[00:00:41] That shot Mr. Howard

[00:00:43] He laid poor Jesse in his grave

[00:00:48] It was on a Saturday night

[00:00:50] And the moon

[00:00:51] Was shining bright

[00:00:53] They robbed the Glendale train

[00:00:57] For the agent on his knees delivered up the keys

[00:01:02] To the outlaws Frank an' Jesse James

[00:01:07] Oh Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life

[00:01:11] Three children they were brave

[00:01:16] But that dirty little coward that shot Mr. Joward

[00:01:21] Has laid poor Jesse in his grave

[00:01:44] All the people held their breath when they heard of Jesse's death

[00:01:49] They wondered how he ever come to fall

[00:01:53] Robert Ford it was a fact

[00:01:56] Shot Jesse in the back

[00:01:58] While Jesse hung a picture on the wall

[00:02:03] Oh Jesse had a wife

[00:02:05] To mourn for his life

[00:02:08] Three children

[00:02:09] They were brave

[00:02:13] Well that dirty little coward

[00:02:15] That shot Mr. Howard

[00:02:18] He laid poor Jesse in his grave

[00:02:22] Jesse was a man

[00:02:25] A friend to the poor

[00:02:27] He'd never rob a mother or a child

[00:02:32] He took from the rich

[00:02:34] And he gave to the poor

[00:02:38] He shot Jesse James on the sly

[00:02:42] Oh Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life

[00:02:47] Three children

[00:02:49] They were brave

[00:02:52] But that dirty little coward

[00:02:55] That shot Mr. Howard

[00:02:57] He's laid poor Jesse in his grave

[00:03:07] This song was made by Billy Gashade

[00:03:12] As soon as the news did arrive

[00:03:16] He said there was no man with the law in his hand

[00:03:21] Who could take Jesse James alive

[00:03:26] Oh Jesse had a wife

[00:03:28] To mourn for his life

[00:03:31] Three children

[00:03:32] They were brave

[00:03:35] Well that dirty little coward

[00:03:38] That shot Mr. Howard

[00:03:40] He laid poor Jesse in his grave

[00:04:02] Oh Jesse had a wife

[00:04:05] To mourn for his life

[00:04:07] Three children

[00:04:09] They were brave

[00:04:12] Well that dirty little coward

[00:04:14] That shot Mr. Howard

[00:04:17] He's laid poor Jesse in his grave
