《The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor》歌词

[00:00:00] The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor - The Oak Ridge Boys

[00:00:13] Among the local taverns they'll be a slack in business

[00:00:20] 'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent

[00:00:27] Among the local women they'll be a slack in cheatin'

[00:00:34] 'Cause Jesse won't be steppin' out again

[00:00:40] They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday

[00:00:47] Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm

[00:00:53] They all cried "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under

[00:00:59] This time he went under for the Lord

[00:01:09] The scars on Jesse's knuckles were more than just respected

[00:01:16] The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell

[00:01:22] The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money

[00:01:28] And the black eye of the law will soon be well

[00:01:35] They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday

[00:01:41] Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm

[00:01:47] They all cried "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under

[00:01:54] This time he went under for the Lord

[00:02:10] From now on Nancy Taylor can proudly speak to neighbors

[00:02:17] Tell them how much Jesse took up with little Jim

[00:02:23] Now Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family

[00:02:30] And Franklin County's got a lot more man

[00:02:36] They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday

[00:02:43] Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm

[00:02:48] They all cried "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under

[00:02:55] This time he went under for the Lord

[00:03:00] I know they baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday

[00:03:07] Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right
