Along Came Jones

Johnny Paycheck

    Continues after the ad

    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 give me 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)

    Ah oh and then along came Jones tall thin Jones
    Slow walking Jones 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)

    Ah oh 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

    Ah oh and then along came Jones...
