Jack Straw

We can share the women
We can share the wine
We can share what we got of yours
'Cause we done shared all of mine

Keep a rollin'
Just a mile to go
Keep on rolling, my old buddy
You're moving much too slow

I just jumped the watchman
Right outside the fence
Took his ring, four bucks in change
Now ain't that heaven sent?

Hurts my ears to listen, Shannon
It burns my eyes to see
Cut down a man in cold blood, Shannon
Might as well be me

We used to play for silver
Now we play for life

And one's for sport and one's for blood
At the point of a knife

Now the die is shaken
Now the die must fall

There ain't a winner in this game
Who don't go home with all
Not with all...

Leaving Texas
Fourth day of July
Sun so hot, the clouds so low
The eagles filled the sky

Catch the Detroit Lightnin'
Out of Santa Fe
The great Northern out of Cheyenne
From sea to shining sea

Gotta get to Tulsa
First train we can ride
Gotta settle one old score
And one small point of pride

There ain't a place a man can hide, Shannon
We'll keep him from the sun
Ain't no bed can give us rest now
You keep us on the run

Jack Straw from Wichita
Cut his buddy down

And dug for him a shallow grave
Laid his body down

Half a mile from Tucson
By the morning light

There's one man gone and another to go
My old buddy you're moving much too slow

We can share the women
We can share the wine
