song lyrics Except For Jessie lyrics Well before she came along he was lonesome onry and mean It was his way or the high way But she had a way that hed never seen Hed been livin hard and fast All his takin was takin its toll And it took a good hearted, hard headed angel To help him gain control He wore his own kind of hat And for that folks called him an outlaw Well some even cussed his name Cause they couldnt see the same man she saw He strummed the beat of a different drum And his hair was always long and messy, yes it was And he said he wouldnt change for no one Except for Jessie Well she never tried to change him But she loved him and gave him a son And that aint easy with a honky tonkin man Makin music on the run And Lord knows she was a good wife Always good at findin ways to right his wrongs She was the love of his life, the inspiration for his songs He wore his own kind of hat And for that folks called him an outlaw Well some even cussed his name Cause they couldnt see the same man she saw He strummed the beat of a different drum And his hair was always long and messy, yes it was And he said he wouldnt change for no one Except for Jessie He wore his own kind of hat And for that folks called him an outlaw Well some even cussed his name Cause they couldnt see the same man she saw He strummed the beat of a different drum And his hair was always long and messy, yes it was And he said he wouldnt change for no one Except for Jessie song lyrics
