Lyrics Along Came Jones - Ray Stevens
I
plopped
down
in
my
easy
chair
and
turned
on
channel
2
A
bad
gunslinger
called
salty
sam
was
chasin'
poor
sweet
sue
He
trapped
her
in
the
old
sawmill
and
said
with
an
evil
laugh,
"If
you
don't
give
me
the
deed
to
your
ranch
I'll
saw
you
all
in
half!"
And
then
he
grabbed
her
(and
then)
He
tied
her
up
(and
then)
He
turned
on
the
bandsaw
(and
then,
and
then...!)
(Chorus):
And
then
along
came
jones
Tall
thin
jones
Slow-walkin'
jones
Slow-talkin'
jones
Along
came
long,
lean,
lanky
jones
Commercial
came
on,
so
i
got
up
to
get
myself
a
snack
You
should've
seen
what
was
goin'
on
by
the
time
that
i
got
back
Down
in
the
old
abandoned
mine,
sweet
sue
was
havin'
fits
That
villain
said,
"give
me
the
deed
to
your
ranch
Or
i'll
blow
you
all
to
bits!"
And
then
he
grabbed
her
(and
then)
He
tied
her
up
(and
then)
He
lit
the
fuse
to
the
dynamite
(and
then,
and
then...!)
(Chorus)
I
got
so
bugged
i
turned
it
off
and
turned
on
another
show
But
there
was
the
same
old
shoot-'em-up
and
the
same
old
rodeo
Salty
sam
was
tryin'
to
stuff
sweet
sue
in
a
burlap
sack
He
said,
"if
you
don't
give
me
the
deed
to
your
ranch
I'm
gonna
throw
you
on
the
railroad
tracks!"
And
then
he
grabbed
her
(and
then)
He
tied
her
up
(and
then)
He
threw
her
on
the
railroad
tracks
(and
then)
A
train
started
comin'
(and
then,
and
then...!)
(Chorus)
