Jesse James the Lowdown Chicken Thievin' Scoundrel
Jesse James was a lowdown scoundrel
yea no more than a chicken thievin' snake
he stole my chickens and my milk money
and my pop sickle and piggy that same day
What kind of a man steals all your chickens
and takes your milk money away
and steals your pig and all your candy
well it was a scoundrel
a scoundrel named Jesse James
the lowdown chicken thievin' Jesse James
Well I'm gonna find him yes I surely will
if my name ain’t Jethro Bodine
no I ain't that famous TV hillbilly
just an Ozark boy by the same name
I'm gonna find that Jesse and shoot him in the head
yea right between his beady little eyes
with this here Winchester six shooter so fine
yea with a bullet for every chicken that was mine
for that lowdown chicken thievin' scoundrel named Jesse James
