Wild Bill Jones

G As I went out for to take a little walk D G I came upon that Wild Bill Jones G He was walkin' and a-talkin' by my true lover's side D G And I bid him to leave her alone G D G G D G G He said, "My age is twenty-one, D G Too old to be controlled." G I pulled my pistol from my side D G And I destroyed that poor boy's soul G D G G D G G He reeled and he staggered then he fell to the ground D G And then he gave one dyin' moan G Well, he wrapped his arms around my little girl's neck D G Said "Honey, won't you take me home." G D G G D G G So put them handcuffs on me boys D G And lead me to that freight car gate G I have no friends or relations there D G No one for to go my bail G D G G D G G So pass around that ol' longneck bottle D G And we'll all go on a spree G Today saw the last of Wild Bill Jones D G And tomorrow'll be the last of me
