Jesse Younger Kris Kristofferson
Little Jesse You[Bm]nger was a well r[D]espected la[A]d
[Bm]Doing all he [D]could to please his [A]mommy and his dad
But he [D]never planned to [A]be the man they [D]said that he'd be[F#]come
And [Bm]somehow or a[D]nother Jesse's [Bm]little baby [A]brother
Is his [Bm]father's and his [F#]mother's only [Bm]son
[Bm]Ev'ry day the nei[D]ghbors say [A]that it's a dirty shame
[Bm]The way he spat u[D]pon his fam[A]ily and scandalized their name
And his[D] parents never re[A]ally ever said h[D]e'd been disowned[F#]
But [Bm]somehow or a[D]nother now his [Bm]little baby [A]brother
Is his [Bm]father's and his [F#]mother's only [Bm]son
[D]Oh, Jesse Younger you're a [Bm]devil not a man
Can you [D]dare to treat your parents so u[Bm]nkind?
You have [D]selfishly refused to live your [Bm]life the way they planned
And you've [E]started going your own way and [F#]speaking your own mind.
[Bm]Jesse Younger's p[D]arents wond[A]er where it all went wrong
[Bm]Now that Jesse's [D]name has tu[A]rned to ashes on their tongues
But he [D]chose to starve a[A]snd try to carve[D] a future of his [F#]own
And [Bm]he got his d[D]ruthers because[Bm] now his you[A]nger brother
Is his [Bm]father's and his [F#]mother's only [Bm]son.
[B]Little Jesse Younger, [F#m]Little Jesse Younger
Little Jesse Younger, Little Jesse Younger...
