Jesse James

When he was running from the cops, he said "Baby, I'm just 19
I'm as sexy as a ballerina in a magazine
Give me danger and a gun, you know I ain't afraid of pain
I don't want to live your life, I wanna die like Jesse James"

I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James

I grew up in a little trailer on the edge of town
My daddy used to beat me raw, he used to beat me down
And one thing that I learned when I was barely 17
Was how to kill a full-grown man when he was fast asleep

'Cause I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James

So now I'm running from the cops, baby, I'm just 19
I'm as sexy as a ballerina on a TV screen
And I'm happy as a newborn baby when he sees his mom
And I'm grateful to the bullet that's just about to take me home

'Cause I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
I wanna die like Jesse James
