J. J. Sneed Songtext

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
