[Verse 1]
To your hands I gave you
Aboard from Hawaii
The ship thick on northern lights
A fugitive, one of three highway man
Who stopped the Pixley train at night
About 8pm, 22 February
We bore 7 thousand in gold
To were killed in the mailing
A fireman of the train
And a passenger from [?]
The leader was an insurance agent, this I know
The [?] set for remote islands near the equator
[Verse 2]
When they found the sip
With not put in there
There's a reason, believe, he set upon fire
When a bomb exploded
Bucks shot unloaded
We three made off in dire
To the rant on rubble
American council
To the Hawaiian king
I swear before notary
To make a clean [?] of the home sand
In hope of salvation, for surely I'll be found before [?]
Before postal authorities can act
I surrender myself unto the reward
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Since I was taken
From the [?] islands
And put on a wailer for my own good
I told the captain not to let me ashore
Except under guard
If no faith is placed
In this letter
You're living on brave and free
The passenger coaches
Were not molested [?] I can see
