Jesse James

Clay Walker

Compositor: Clay Walker

I was raised knowing right from wrong
Baptized under that ol' rugged cross
I try to be a good man
I always give it my best
But the truth be told, some days I wanna go to the wild, wild west

I wanna line 'em I wanna drink 'em
I wanna love 'em I wanna leave 'em
Some times I just wanna rob a train
Be the first drawn in the high noon Sun
And feel the kick of my six gun
Yeah, I want WANTED above my name
Some times I wanna be like Jesus
Some times I wanna be Jesse James

I know where to draw the line
But there's just something 'bout that other side
I've got angels on my left
And demons on my right
It's a never ending battle
It's a constant fight

I wanna line 'em I wanna drink 'em
I wanna love 'em I wanna leave 'em
Some times I just wanna rob a train
Be the first drawn in the high noon Sun
And feel the kick of my six gun
Yeah, I want WANTED above my name
Some times I wanna be like Jesus
Some times I wanna be Jesse James

I wanna steal a horse
Ride into town
Stare the sherif down
Tell him there's a New man 'round here
I wanna walk through those Swing saloon doors
Hear my spurs hit the wooden floor
I wanna smell nothin' but fear, Y'hear?
Law don't go 'round here

I wanna line 'em I wanna drink 'em
I wanna love 'em I wanna leave 'em
Some times I just wanna rob a train
Be the first drawn in the high noon Sun
And feel the kick of my six gun
Yeah, I want WANTED above my name
Some times I wanna be like Jesus
Some times I wanna be Jesse James

Ya hear that, law dog?
Law don't go 'round here
