Wild Bill Jones by Sam Amidon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was out a-walking around one night
And I came upon Wild Bill Jones
He was walking, he was talking with the girl I loved
And I bid him for to leave her alone

[Verse 2]
He said, "Young man, I'm twenty-two
Too old for to be controlled"
So I drew a revolver from my side
And I shot at the poor boy's soul

[Refrain]
Sum-da
Da-da
Da-da-da
Dum-da

[Verse 3]
He rambled and he scrambled all along the ground
And he let out a dreadful moan
He looked in the face of his darling true love
Saying "Honey, you are left all alone"
[Refrain]
Dum-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da

[Verse 4]
Got my money in my pocket and my pistol in my hand
Look for the man who made Wild Bill stand

[Refrain]
Dum-da-da
La-la-la
La-la-la
La
