Have you seen that vigilante man?
|
Have you seen that vigilante man?
|
Have you seen that vigilante man?
|
I been hearin' his name all over the land.
|
|
Well, what is a vigilante man?
|
Tell me, what is a vigilante man?
|
Has he got a gun and a club in his hand?
|
Is that is a vigilante man?
|
|
Rainy night down in the engine house,
|
Sleepin' just as still as a mouse,
|
Man come along an' he chased us out in the rain.
|
Was that a vigilante man?
|
|
Stormy days we passed the time away,
|
Sleepin' in some good warm place.
|
Man come along an' we give him a little race.
|
Was that a vigilante man?
|
|
Preacher Casey was just a workin' man,
|
And he said, "Unite all you working men."
|
Killed him in the river some strange man.
|
Was that a vigilante man?
|
|
Oh, why does a vigilante man,
|
Why does a vigilante man
|
Carry that sawed-off shot-gun in his hand?
|
Would he shoot his brother and sister down?
|
|
I rambled 'round from town to town,
|
I rambled 'round from town to town,
|
And they herded us around like a wild herd of cattle.
|
Was that the vigilante men?
|
|
Have you seen that vigilante man?
|
Have you seen that vigilante man?
|
I've heard his name all over this land.
