Once in a dream of the old west,

A gunman was saddled with the draw,

He stole all my wages in his passing,

But the sheriff said he'd taken 'em

Within the frame of law.

All of my life I've been working,

Making the most of the good times.

Now the pockets in my faded jeans are rattling

With the lay-off slip all crumpled

‘Round the nickels and dimes.

I feei like robbing a freight train;

You can call me Mr. Jesse James.

One more ottlaw to blame

When your system goes insane,

And | feel like robbing a freight train.
