Wildcat Kelly, lookin' mighty pale
Was standing at the sheriff's side
When the sheriff said "I'm takin' you to jail"
Wildcat raised his head and cried...
CHORUS
Wilcat Kelly, back again in town
Was sittin' by his sweetheart's side
When his sweetheart said "It's time we settled down"
Wildcat raised his head and cried...
CHORUS
