Opening Credits Lyrics:

Jesse James

Jesse James

He was cursed with a quick and reckless gun

Jesse James

And he played the game that no man ever won

Jesse James

But his killing turned him cold,

He grew bitter, he grew bold

And he fought the world with a cold, hungry gun.

Cold, hungry gun

Cold, hungry gun

Lasting fame, a lasting shame

Of a man with a hungry gun

Jesse James

Jesse James

Closing Credits Lyrics:

For his crimes, Jesse paid a fearful debt

Jesse James

And his life became a legend of regret

Jesse James

For he lived by guns alone

And he reaped what he had sown

And the world will not forgive nor forget

Jesse James, Jesse James

Gold-hungry gun, gold-hungry gun

Lasting fame, the lasting shame

Of the man with the hungry gun

Jesse James, Jesse James, Jesse James
