Wild Bill Jones - Mountain Banjo
Wild Bill Jones is a traditional outlaw blues folk banjo song. I sing and play it on the mountain banjo in the clawhammer style. Banjo is in sawmill tuning. This is a murder ballad which some viewers may be sensitive to. Proceed with caution. (I`m going to take a break from posting music videos for awhile)
Wild Bill Jones - lyrics
Clawhammer Mountain Banjo
As I went out for to take a little walk
I came upon that wild Bill Jones
He`s a walking and talking by my true lovers side
I bid him to leave her alone
He said my age it is twenty-one
Too old to be controlled
I pulled my revolver from my side
And I destroyed that poor boy's soul
(alt break 1)
He reeled and he staggered, and he fell to the ground
And then he gave one dying moan
He wrapped his arms around my true loves neck
Saying honey wont you take me home
So put them handcuffs on me boys
And march me on down to the jail
I have no friends or relations here
No one for to go my bail
(alt break 2)
So pass around that old long necked bottle
And we’ll all go on a spree
For today was the last of that Wild Bill Jones
And tomorrow will be the death of me
They sent me to prison for twenty long years
This poor boy longs to be free
But Wild Bill Jones and that long-necked bottle
Have been the ruin of me
(alt break 1 and 2 outro)
