[Verse 1]
Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
I been hearin' his name all over the land

[Verse 2]
Well, what is a vigilante man?
Tell me, what is a vigilante man?
Has he got a gun and a club in his hand?
Is that is a vigilante man?

[Verse 3]
Rainy night down in the engine house
Sleepin' just as still as a mouse
Man come along an' he chased us out in the rain
Was that a vigilante man?

[Verse 4]
Stormy days we passed the time away
Sleepin' in some good warm place
Man come along an' we give him a little race
Was that a vigilante man?
[Verse 5]
Preacher Casy was just a workin' man
And he said, "Unite all you working men"
Killed him in the river some strange man
Was that a vigilante man?

[Verse 6]
Oh, why does a vigilante man
Why does a vigilante man
Carry that sawed-off shotgun in his hand?
Would he shoot his brother and sister down?

[Verse 7]
I rambled 'round from town to town
I rambled 'round from town to town
And they herded us around like a wild herd of cattle
Was that the vigilante men?

[Verse 1]
Have you seen that vigilante man?
Have you seen that vigilante man?
I've heard his name all over the land
