Elephant Joe got up to go
But he never was fast
Meek as a child
He never ran wild
He had an unremarkable past
He had a black dog
That followed along
And made him want to drown
In a bottle of whiskey
He bought for eight fifty
Right on the edge of town

He sat alone below a half moon
Polishing off that fifth
When out on a lark
Walked out of the dark
A man named Blue Faced Jim
He said I got a plate
Of crocodile steak
If you're willing to trade
To sip a drip
Of that snippy snip
Then I'll be on my way

In this world you don't try twice
So you better be sure better choose wise
Before that sun sets on your life

It wasn't too long
That jug was gone
But the thirst was kicking in
To get a refill without a bill
They plotted to commit a sin
Blue Face Jim said I'll make a scene
Joe you grab that grab that green
But something went wrong
And it wasn't too long
Before they had to flee

In this world you don't try twice
So you better be sure better choose wise
Before that sun sets on your life

Elephant Joe stumbled towards the depot
Chucked a dummy in front of the people
Blue Face Jim crept around the back
Tried to grab that fat green stack
Face to face with the bull
In a quick tussle the trigger got pulled
The cop on the ground
Caught the west bound
And Joe and Jim skipped town
