Along Came Jones
Coasters


I flopped down in my easy chair
And turned on chanel two
A bad gun slinger called salty sam
Was a chasin poor sweet sue
He trapped her in the old saw mill
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 buzz saw
(And then)
(And then)
Ah ah
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow walkin Jones
Slow talkin Jones
Along came lonely lanky Jones
Commercial came on so I got up
To get myself a snack
You should have seen what was goin on
By the time that I got back
Down in the old abandond mine
Sweet sue was having fits
That vilin 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 dynomite
(And then)
(And then)
Ah ah
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow walkin Jones
Slow talkin Jones
Along came lonely lanky Jones

I got so bugged that I turnd off
And turned on another show
But there was the same old shootem up
And the same old rodeo
Salty sam was a 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 track
And then he grabbed her
(And then)
He tied her up
(And then)
He through her on the railroad track
(And then)
A train started commin
(And then)
(And then)
Ah ah
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow walkin Jones
Slow talkin Jones
Along came lonely lanky Jones
Along came loney lanky Jones
