1st verse
I was just a boy of ten when it happened
Though they talk about it still today
I remember reading headlines in the paper
In my mind's eye I can see them say
Chorus
The great train robbery
Do you remember
The great train robbery
Do you remember
Five men and a woman with a shotgun
Tried to rob a train
Five men and a woman with a shotgun
So the papers say
2nd verse
On a cold and windy night in December
In the year of 1899
And the people of the world still remember
How they disappeared into the night
The great train robbery
Do you remember
The great train robbery
Do you remember
3rd verse
It's a long time since that cold day in December
And the story is a legend now
And the woman living in the town of Denver
Is the only one they never found
Repeat chorus
