GUEST,henryp Any September Songs? (284* d) RE: Any September Songs? 04 Sep 23

5 September On this day in 1847, Jesse James, American outlaw, was born near Kansas City. With his elder brother Frank, he led the first gang to carry out train robberies.

JESSE JAMES is a 19th-century American folk song, first recorded by Bentley Ball in 1919 and subsequently by many others, including Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and The Kingston Trio.

But that dirty little coward That shot Mr. Howard
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave.

Robert Ford, who killed Jesse, was a James' gang member. Mr. Howard was the alias that James lived under in Saint Joseph, Missouri at the time of his killing.
