J. J. Sneed Lyrics - Kitty Wells

At last I have caught up with you and you're a sight to see 

Could this really be my outlaw lover JJ Sneed 

Could a woman with a painted face and pretty sweet disguise 

Turn your heart against me with her evil cunning eyes her evil cunning eyes 

JJ it's been you and me right from the very start 

And every job we ever pulled I'd always done my part 

We'd really stick together until the bitter end 

It was my understanding we were whole lots more than friends 

A whole lot more than friends 

It was me that kept you warm when nights were dark and cold 

But I guess I didn't look like much in these old ragged clothes 

But you said it didn't matter cause you love me that a way 

You said that no one else could ever steal your heart away steal your heart away 

Do you recall the Union Bank we robbed in Franklin Town 

As we made our getaway the sheriff gunned you down 

And I doctored up your bullet wounds and nursed you while you're sick 

But now you have betrayed me is that the thanks I get is that the thanks I get 

Oh yeah JJ I'm thinking now of how we'd all begun 

Of all the times we've robbed and killed with our trust wordy gun 

Why we stood off a fuss it was JJ just you and I 

Now you have betrayed me and for that you're gonna die for that you're gonna die 

The good old days are over as we stand here in the rain 

JJ I'm gonna shoot you now I hope you'll feel no pain 

I hear whoopees of the horses and fieces on my trail 

I guess I'll join you soon but for now JJ farewell for now JJ farewell now JJ farewell
