Jumpin' Down The Running Train Lyrics - Singles - Desperados

[The Ballad Of Jesse James] 

I dreamt I was in heaven 

among the angel's gold 

feeded by a pleasant hand 

that dealt the playing cards 

no sorts of bones whatever 

creeping on the ground 

'cause bonds of faith may always sever 

but my gun is still around 

now I just found a game 

like a mortal upper story 

play the final showdown scene 

'til you are gone to glory 

both friends and foes agree 

accused of breaking laws 

there is no money in this secret box 

the fodder to my purse 

maybe I am wrong 

maybe I am right 

maybe I'm not strong enough 

maybe I will die 

like a tawny snake 

in a torrid clime 

the twilight 

'til the dawn of time 

maybe I disclaim my honour 

maybe I will jumping down the running train - 

jumping down the running train 

- jumping down the running train 

the ballade of Jesse James 

there was a little lady 

she was twined in golden hair 

don't want to take her to my heart 

'cause dollars doesn't smell 

she felt down on her knees 

I cant forget the sound 

'cause bonds of faith may always sever 

but my gun is still around 

from the deepground of the ocean 

to the top of mountains high 

where love threw up the sponge 

fear got the upper hand 

an insidious bullet from behind 

the coffin let me learn 

there's no money in this secret box 

just fodder to the worms 

maybe...
