Legend of George Nelson

Well his Christian name is George but most call him Babyface
 Screamin' towards Innabena with Johnny Law puttin' on a chase
 Picked up three drifters (just) wanderin' down a lonesome road
 One of them pointed out to him (that) his foldin' money'd come unstowed
 George was in a line of work (that) required him to carry a gun
 (the)drifters met up with him on the tail end of a three bank run
 Bigger than any Johnny Law is all that George wanted to be
 The title he yearned for was crim'nal of the century
 Well it looks like ol' George is back on top again
 Hands bound behind him, he's beaming with pride
 Lightnin' will be shootin' through his fingertips
 For that moment of glory, he was willing to die
 Jesus saves, George withdraws, (and) the drifters seem to benefit from both
 A live wire and a Tommy gun, makes for a quite an outlaw show
 So hold your paws and drop your drawers, and don't you dare ring that warnin' bell
 (cause) folks my name is George Nelson – and I was born to raise hell
 With thrill-seeking folks like George, what goes up must come down
 All it takes is another thrill to bring their battered souls around
 Well a lynch mob caught up George and put him back on top again
 They brought livestock, fire, and fiddle, they even brought a mandolin
 Well it looks like ol' George is back on top again
 Hands bound behind him, he's beaming with pride
 Lightnin' will be shootin' through his fingertips
 For that moment of glory, he was willing to die
 (When) Babyface was electrified, power moved in a weird sort of way
 George's prayer was answered when he took all the power from the state
 You see control is merely relative, when perceived it certainly is a lie
 And in the end it was George "Babyface" Nelson who wound up bonafide
