Well I plopped down in my easy chair and turned on Channel Two
|
A bad gun slinger called Salty Sam was a chasin' poor Sweet Sue
|
He trapped her in the old sawmill and he said with an evil laugh
|
If you don't gimme the deed to your ranch I'll saw you all in half
|
And then he grabbed her (and then) he tied her up (and then)
|
He turned on the buzz saw (and then and then)
|
Eh eh and then along came Jones tall thin Jones
|
Slow walking Jones (deep voice) slow talking Jones along came long lean lanky Jones
|
|
Well commercial came on so I got up to get myself a snack
|
You should have seen what was going on by the time I got back
|
Down in the old abandoned mine sweet Sue was a havin' fits
|
That villain said gimme the deed to your ranch or I'll blow you all to bits
|
And then he grabbed her (and then) he tied her up (and then)
|
He lit the fuse to the dynamite (and then and then)
|
Eh eh and then along came Jones...
|
[ sax ]
|
Well I got so bugged I turned it off and turned on another show
|
But there was the same old shoot-em up and the same old rodeo
|
Salty Sam was a tryin' to stuff Sweet Sue in a burlap sack
|
He said if you don't give me the deed to your ranch
|
I'm gonna throw you on the railroad track
|
And then he grabbed her (and then) he tied her up (and then)
|
A train started coming (nd then and then) Eh Eh and then along came Jones...
|
