Jayne.... The man they call Jayne...
`
(Chorus):
He robbed from the rich and he ..gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man and he ..gave him what for!
Our love for him now.. ain't hard to explain,
The Hero of Canton, ..the man they call Jayne!
-
Now Jayne saw the Mudders' backs breakin'.
He sa-w the Mudders' laments
and he saw the Magistrate takin'
.. every dollar and leavin' Five Cents!
So he said, "You can't do that to my people!"
He said,"Can't crush them under your he-el!"
Jayne strapped on his hat.. and in Five seconds flat,
Stole everything Boss Higgins had to steal!
-
(Chorus):
He robbed from the rich and he ..gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man and he..gave him what for!
Our love for him now.. ain't hard to explain,
The Hero of Canton, ..the man they call Jayne!
-
Now here is what separates heroes,
..from common folk ..like you and I,
The man they call Jayne, he ..turned 'round his plane,
.. and let ..that money hit the sky!
He dropped it on-to our hous-es,
he dropped it into our ya--rds!
The Man they call Jayne, he stole away our pain
and he headed out for the stars!
-
(Chorus):
He robbed from the rich and he ..gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man and he..gave him what for!
Our love for him now.. ain't hard to explain,
The Hero of Canton, ..the man they call Ja---yne!
