*****
Reverend James
Preached the gospel
Passed the hat
Tend the fold
A good man
A good father
‘til Californy
Hollered gold
He run off
And left their momma
With the farm
And fields to plow
He run off
To California
Left the
Boys and Sue and Maw
Frank and Jesse
Rode the highway
Lived and died
By the gun
Brothers James
Hero outlaws
Mighty proud
Missourians

Tells their story half way decently, but for me to judge it, I would like to hear it sung by someone

Um, it sounds sort of familiar. Who are your influences?
