Lyrics:

Oh, well we run to the break of day
The old man groaned as we rolled away
Our women wept as we sped on by
We hung our heads low as they raised their flags high
Then we grabbed our guns and shot away
He's killed all our brothers on a Saturday
Our blood's dishonored and our wounds were deep
Old Jesse James, well, he won't even take a peep
So then we go on down that road
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
The girls said I'd die before I get old

The war is over and the graves were deep
The sun was down just like my brother Rim's keep
You burned my house and you raped my wife
I fall to my knees and I pray to the Lord that I can kill that fucker tonight
So then we go on down that road
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
Mama said I'd die before I get old

Oh, hey there, Dad
Don't you know who I am?
No motherfucker, don't give a goddamn

So then we go on down that road
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
Breaking your backs and breaking your souls
Mama said I'd die before I get old
Mama said I'd die before I get old
Mama said I'd die before I get old
Mama said I'd die before I get old
Mama said I'd die before I get old
Mama said I'd die before I get old
