《The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor》歌词

[00:00:00] The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor - Guy Penrod

[00:00:14] Among the local taverns there'll be a slack in business

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

[00:00:26] Among the local women

[00:00:31] There'll be a slack in cheatin'

[00:00:34] 'Cause Jesse won't be 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"

[00:00:56] When Jesse's head went under

[00:00:59] 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

[00:01:08] The scars on Jesse's knuckles are more than just respected

[00:01:15] The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell

[00:01:23] The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money

[00:01:29] 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

[00:01:53] 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

[00:02:08] Well from now on Nancy Taylor

[00:02:12] Can proudly speak to neighbors

[00:02:15] And tell how much Jesse took up with little Jim

[00:02:22] Now Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family

[00:02:29] And Franklin County's got a lot more man

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

[00:02:42] Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm

[00:02:48] They all cried "Hallelujah"

[00:02:51] When Jesse's head went under

[00:02:54] 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

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

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

[00:03:12] They all cried "Hallelujah"

[00:03:16] When Jesse's head went under

[00:03:19] 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord

[00:03:25] Yeah this time he went under for the Lord
