Letras de Jesse James Blues

Uh-huh

I had a friend one time
At least I thought I did
The cat come to me
Said, "Johnny"
I said, "What, man?"
"Am I dole"
I taken the cat in
Get him a place to stay
And a bed to sleep in
But I found out
He was going ′round town
Tellin' everybody that he
He got my wife

And I gets mad
I goes to the cat, and
Like a good guy should
I said, "Look, man
I′ma warn you
Just one time
Next time I warn you
I'ma use my gun"

'Cause I′m bad
And I′m mad
Like Jesse James
Uh-huh

I got three boys
Do my dirty work
You don't see me
I′m the big boss
They may shoot you
They may cut you
I don't know
And I don′t care
Long as they take care of you
In their own way

Yeah
I'm mad
And I′m bad
Like Jesse James
Uh-huh

They gon' take you down
By the riverside
Now four going down
Ain't but three coming back
You read between lines
What gon′ happen to you
′Cause you was the fourth one
And you ain't coming back
They gon′ tie your hands
They gon' tie your feet
And gag your throat
And sink you in the water
You can hear the bubbles coming up

Oh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You ain′t gon' talk no more
Talking ′bout you got my wife
You got the ocean, you ain't got her
Uh-huh
Just hold him there, hold him there now
'Til he stop, mmm
Oh, mmm
Now let him up now
Let him float
You ain′t gon′ talk no more, talking 'bout you got my wife
You got the big ocean all to yourself
