Lyrics Jack Straw

We can share the women
We can share the wine
We can share what we got of yours
We can share what we got of yours 'cos we done shared all of mine 'cos we done shared all of mine
Keep on rollin'
Just a mile to go
Keep on rollin' my old buddy
Keep on rollin' my old buddy you're movin' much too slow you're movin' much too slow
I just jumped the watchman right outside the fence
Took his rings
Four bucks in change
Ain't that Heaven sent
Hurts my ears to listen
Shannon
Burns my eyes to see
Cut down a man in cold blood Shannon
Might as well've been me
We used to play for silver
Now we play for life
And one's for sport and one's for blood at the point of a knife
And now the die is shaken
Now the die must fall
There ain't a winner in the game
He don't go home with all
Not with all, all
Leavin' Texas
Fourth day of July
Sun so hot
The clouds so low
Sun so hot
The clouds so low
The eagles filled the sky
The eagles filled the sky
Catch the Detroit
Lightning out of Santa Fe
The Great Northern out of Cheyenne
Great Northern out of Cheyenne
From sea to shining sea
From sea to shining sea
Gotta go to Tulsa
First train we can ride
Gotta settle
Gotta settle one old score
One small point of pride
There ain't a place a man can hide Shannon will keep him from the sun
Ain't a bed can give us rest now
You keep us on the run
Wooh
Hoo
Hoo
Jack Straw from Wichita cut his buddy down
Dug for him a shallow grave and laid his body down
Huh half a mile from Tucson
Huh by the morning light
One man gone and another to go
My old buddy you're moving much too slow woah ho
We can share the women
We can share the wine
