Jesse James

Album: GUN

Girl, I’m more of a killer than I’ma say

But comin’ from the belt loop pressed to my back

I’ve got a six shooter that’s aimin’ to brag

And I was born

both a sinner and a saint

I’m a calm car crash

And like a stray bullet breaking some glass

 

I can’t be stopped

I am the best at it

I am the one

I am your check mate

Ah, girl, I’m Jesse James

Oh, I’ll admit I’m bad like Jesse James

 

I heard you long to get outa here, to see the states

Just so you know I got a seat at my side

It’s waiting for a Bonnie to call me her Clyde

But you should

know I’m more a river than I’m a lake

I’m rushing like a stampede escaping the fire

I’m like the tongue behind the teeth of a liar

 

I can’t be stopped

I am the best at it

I am the one

I am your check mate

Ah, girl, I’m Jesse James

Oh, I’ll admit I’m bad like Jesse James

 

Oh, I ache for money

I wake to hunger for more than what I got

I don’t tell no one

‘Cause honestly

there’s a part of me

that wants to be

cold and hardened with a gun

aimed at everyone

like Jesse James
