1 Authorship: Most of the tunes have been taken from the web; a few were transcribed from handwritten versions in circulation when I joined the band. I tried to write down what we play (but of course that changes over time). The chords likewise. Where we know the author, we have said so. If you feel your copyright is being infringed please tell me!

Glendale Train Chorus Somebody robbed the Glendale train This morning at half past nine Somebody robbed the Glendale train And I swear I ain't lying They made clean off with sixteen g's And left two men lying cold Somebody robbed the Glendale train And they made off with the gold Charlie Jones was the engineer He had twenty years on the line He kissed his wife at the station gate This morning at six thirty five
Now everything went fine 'til half past nine Then charlie looked up and he saw There was men on horses, men with guns And no sign of the law [chorus] Amos White was the baggage man And he dearly loved his job The company, they rewarded him With a golden watch and fob Well, Amos he was marking time When the door blew off his car They found Amos White in fifteen pieces Fifteen miles apart

Jesse James Jesse James was a man And he killed many men He robbed the Glendale train And he took from the richer And he gave that to the poorer He'd a hand and a heart and a brain Oh Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life Three children they were so brave But that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard Has laid Jesse James in his grave (Instrumental) On Wednesday night When the moon was shining bright They robbed that Glendale train And the folks from miles about (yeah they can) They all said without a doubt It was done by her Frankie and Jesse James (yes it was) Oh Jessie had a wife, to mourn for his life Three children they were so brave But that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard Has laid (poor) Jesse James in his grave (Instrumental) Well the people held their breath When they heard about Jesse's death (yeah) And they wondered how poor Jesse came to die (how did he die?) It was one of his guys, called Little Robert Ford And he shot Jessie James on the sly Oh Jessie had a wife to mourn for his life Three children they were so brave But that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard Has laid Jesse James in his grave Has laid poor Jesse in his grave
Jesse James was a lad that killed many a man, He robbed the Glendale train, He stole from the rich and he gave to the poor, He'd a hand and a heart and a brain. Well it was Robert Ford, that dirty little coward, I wonder how he feel, For he ate of Jesse's bread and he slept in Jesse's bed, And he laid poor Jesse in his grave. (chorus) Well Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life Three children now they were brave Well that dirty little coward that shot Mr. Howard He laid poor Jesse in his grave Jesse was a man, a friend to the poor, He'd never rob a mother or a child There never was a man with the law in his hand That could take Jesse James alive It was on a Saturday night and the moon was shining bright, They robbed the Glendale train, And people they did say o'er many miles away It was those outlaws, they're Frank and Jesse James (chorus) Now the people held their breath when they heard of Jesse's death, And wondered how he ever came to fall Robert Ford, it was a fact, he shot Jesse in the back While Jesse hung a picture on the wall Now Jesse went to rest with his hand on his breast, The devil will be upon his knee. He was born one day in the County Clay, And he came from a solitary race.

Old Dan Tucker
V1: Now old Dan Tucker’s a fine old man, Washed his face in a fryin’ pan.
Combed his head with a wagon wheel, And died with a tooth ache in his heel
Get out the way old Dan Tucker
You’re too late to get your supper. Get out the way old Dan Tucker
You’re too late to get your supper.
V2: Now old Dan Tucker is come to town Riding a billy goat leading a hound
Hound dog bark and the billy goat jump Landed Dan Tucker on top of the stump.
V3: Now old Dan Tucker he got drunk Fell in the fire and kicked up a chunk
Red hot coal got in his shoe And oh my lawd how the ashes flew
V4: Now old Dan Tucker is come to town
Swinging the ladies round and round First to the right and then to the left Then to the girl that he loves best
Old Dan Tucker’s ten feet tall
Sleeps in the kitchen with his feet in the hall He’s got a brother who’s three foot two
Sleeps inside a worn out shoe
Old Dan Tucker was a happy old soul He picked his teeth with a telegraph pole
Blew his nose on an old bed sheet Sneezed his wife out onto the street
Old Dan Tucker rode into town
Jumped off his horse an’ his pants fell down Old Dan Tucker he went to a dance
‘You can’t come in, boy – got no pants’
Old Dan Tucker come to town Swinging the ladies round and round
First to the right, then to the left Then to the one that you love best
