Intro

(only hit it once)

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

Verse 1

 Now Jayne saw the mudders' backs breakin'

 He saw the mudders' lament

 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 heel"

 Jayne strapped on his hat

 and in 5 seconds flat

  Aaug5sus4

stole everything Boss Higgins had to steal

Verse 2

 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 sky

 He dropped it onto our houses

 He dropped it into our yards

 The man they call Jayne

 He stole away our pain

  Aa. (Aa. = Aaug5sus4)

And headed out for the stars
