THE BAPTISM OF JESSE TAYLOR
 





Among the local taverns there'll be a slack in business,


'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent;

           


Among the local women there'll be a slack in cheatin',


'Cause Jesse won't be steppin' out again.

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday,


Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm;


They all cried Hallelujah when Jesse's head went under,
This time he went under for the Lord.

The scars on Jesse's knuckles are more than just respected,


The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell;


The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money,


And the black eye of the law will soon be well.

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday, Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm;
They all cried Hallelujah when Jesse's head went under,
This time he went under for the Lord.


Well, from now on Nancy Taylor

can proudly speak to neighbors,


And tell 'em how much Jesse took up with little Jim; Now, Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family,
And Franklin County's got a lot more man.



They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday, Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm;
They all cried Hallelujah when Jesse's head went under,
This time he went under for the Lord.


They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday, Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm;
They all cried Hallelujah when Jesse's head went under,
This time he went under for the Lord.

Yeah, this time he went under for the Lord.
