George Jones Along Came Jones Lyrics

Along Came Jones Lyrics

Well, I plopped down in my easy chair

And turned on Channel Two

A bad gun slinger called Salty Sam

Was a chasin' poor Sweet Sue

He trapped her in the old sawmill

And he said with an evil laugh

If you don't gimme 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)

Eh, eh and then along came Jones tall thin Jones

Slow walking Jones

(Deep voice)

Slow talking Jones along came long lean lanky, Jones



Well commercial came on

So I got up to get myself a snack

You should have seen what was going on

By the time I got back

Down in the old abandoned mine

Sweet Sue was a havin' fits

That villain said, "Gimme 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)

Eh, eh and then along came Jones



Well, 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 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)

A train started coming

(And then and then)

Eh, eh and then along came Jones
