[Dolly Parton - J.J. Sneed lyrics]
At last I have caught up with you
And you're a sight to see
Could this really be my outlaw lover JJ Sneed
Could a woman with a painted
Face and pretty sweet disguise
Turn your heart against me with her evil
Cunning eyes her evil cunning eyes
JJ it's been you and me
Right from the very start
And ever job we ever pulled
I'd always done my part
We agreed we'd stick together
Until the bitter end
It was my understanding we were
Whole lots more than friends
A whole lot more than friends
And it was me that kept you on
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 because
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
And as we made our getaway
The sheriff gunned you down
And I doctored up your bullet wounds
And nursed you while you sit
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 it all begun
Of all the times we've robbed and
Killed with our trustworthy gun
Why we stood off a possy once
JJ just you and I
But now you have betrayed me and
For that you're going to die
Yeah for that you're going to die
The good old days are over as
We stand here in the rain
JJ I'm going to shoot you now
I hope you feel no pain
I hear hoofbeats of the horses
Horses on my trail
I guess I'll join you soon but for
Now JJ farewell for now JJ farewell
And you're a sight to see
Could this really be my outlaw lover JJ Sneed
Could a woman with a painted
Face and pretty sweet disguise
Turn your heart against me with her evil
Cunning eyes her evil cunning eyes
JJ it's been you and me
Right from the very start
And ever job we ever pulled
I'd always done my part
We agreed we'd stick together
Until the bitter end
It was my understanding we were
Whole lots more than friends
A whole lot more than friends
And it was me that kept you on
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 because
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
And as we made our getaway
The sheriff gunned you down
And I doctored up your bullet wounds
And nursed you while you sit
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 it all begun
Of all the times we've robbed and
Killed with our trustworthy gun
Why we stood off a possy once
JJ just you and I
But now you have betrayed me and
For that you're going to die
Yeah for that you're going to die
The good old days are over as
We stand here in the rain
JJ I'm going to shoot you now
I hope you feel no pain
I hear hoofbeats of the horses
Horses on my trail
I guess I'll join you soon but for
Now JJ farewell for now JJ farewell
