Among the local taverns
There'll be a slack in business
Cause Jesse's drinking came
Before the groceries and the rent
Among the local women
There'll be a lot less cheatin'
Cause Jesse won't be steppin' out again

They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul
And Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried hallelujah
When Jesse's head went under
Cause this time he went under for the Lord

The scars on Jesse's knuckles
Were more than just respected
The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell
The pockets of the gamblers
Will soon miss Jesse's money
And the black eye of the law will soon be well
They baptized Jesse Taylor...

From now on Nancy Taylor can proudly speak to neighbors
And tell them how much Jesse's took up with little Jim
Now Jimmy's got a daddy
And Jesse's got a family
And Franklin County's got a lot more man
They baptized Jesse Taylor...
