[00:04.16]John Wesley Harding
[00:07.45]Was a friend to the poor
[00:11.15]He trav'led with a gun in ev'ry hand
[00:16.34]
[00:18.56]All along this countryside
[00:21.74]He opened a many a door
[00:25.24]But he was never known
[00:26.94]To hurt a honest man.
[00:30.11]
[01:00.82]It was down in Chaynee County
[01:03.97]A time they talk about
[01:07.62]With his lady by his side
[01:10.69]He took a stand
[01:14.26]
[01:15.25]And soon the situation there
[01:18.38]Was all but straightened out
[01:21.71]For he was always known
[01:23.80]To lend a helping hand.
[01:26.79]
[01:57.62]All across the telegraph
[02:00.79]His name it did resound
[02:04.20]But no charge held against him
[02:07.75]Could they prove
[02:11.40]And there was no man around
[02:14.06]Who could track or chain him down
[02:18.34]He was never known
[02:20.24]To make a foolish move.
