[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
'Cause this time, he went under for the Lord
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
'Cause this time, he went under for the Lord
[Verse 5]
Well, from now on, Nancy Taylor
Can proudly speak to neighbors
And tell 'em how just how 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
[Verse 6]
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
'Cause this time, he went under for the Lord
[Verse 7]
Yes, 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
'Cause this time, he went under for the Lord
Yeah, this time, he went under for the Lord
