Along Came Jones Lyrics
Along Came Jones - The Coasters
I plopped down in my easy chair
And turned on Channel 2
A bad gunslinger called Salty Sam
Was chasing poor Sweet Sue
He trapped her in the old sawmill
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 bandsaw
And then and then
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow-walking Jones
Slow-talking Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
Commercial came on
So I got up to get myself a snack
You should've seen what was going on
By the time that I got back
Down in the old abandoned mine
Sweet Sue was having fits
That villain 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 dynamite
And then and then
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow-walking Jones
Slow-talking Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
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 trying 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 tracks
And then he grabbed her
And then
He tied her up
And then
A train started coming
And then and then
And then along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow-walking Jones
Slow-talking Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
Along came long lean lanky Jones
