I plopped down in my easy chair and turned on Channel 2 |
|
A bad gunslinger called Salty Sam was chasin' poor Sweet Sue |
|
He trapped her in the old sawmill and said with an evil laugh |
|
"If you don't give me the deed to your ranch, I'll saw you all in half" |
|
And then he grabbed her, he tied her up |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
He turned on the bandsaw |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
And then along came Jones, tall thin Jones |
|
Slow walkin' Jones, slow talkin' Jones |
|
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones |
|
Commercial came on, so I got up to get myself a snack |
|
You should've seen what was goin' on by the time that I got back |
|
Down in the old abandoned mine, Sweet Sue was havin' fits |
|
That villain said, "Give me the deed to your ranch or I'll blow you all to bits" |
|
And then he grabbed her, he tied her up |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
He lit the fuse to the dynamite |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
And then along came Jones, tall thin Jones |
|
Slow walkin' Jones, slow talkin' Jones |
|
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones |
|
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 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 tracks" |
|
And then he grabbed her, he tied her up |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
He threw her on the railroad tracks |
|
(And then) |
|
A train started comin' |
|
(And then, and then) |
|
And then along came Jones, tall thin Jones |
|
Slow walkin' Jones, slow talkin' Jones |
|
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones |
