War broke
out between the states
And
they joined up with Quantrill
And
it was over in Clay county
That
Frank and Jesse finally learned to kill
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Frank
and Jesse James
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
'Til
you clear your names
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Across
the rivers and the range
Keep
on riding, riding, riding Frank and Jesse James
After
Appomattox they were on the loosing side
So no
amnesty was granted
And
as outlaws they did ride
They
rode against the railroads,
And
they rode against the banks
And
they rode against the governor
Never
did they ask for a word of thanks
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Frank
and Jesse James
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
'Til
you clear your names
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Across
the prairies and the plains
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Frank
and Jesse James
Robert
Ford, a gunman
Did
exchange for his parole
Took
the life of James the outlaw
Which
he snuck up on and stole
No one
knows just where they came to be misunderstood
But
the poor Missouri farmers knew
Frank
and Jesse do the best they could
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Frank
and Jesse James
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
'Til
you clear your names
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Across
the rivers and the range
Keep
on riding, riding, riding
Frank
and Jesse James
