This one, to my irritation, took a while...

The Thief's Lament (Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key; lyrics Woody Guthrie, tune Billy Bragg/Wilco)
I was made to go by that great bully And then a little girl pulled a gun on me She took me to a man mad as can be 'Cause there ain't nobody who can steal like me
She said that I lie so badly But to that door I was the key Only way to get what they want, you see And there ain't nobody who can steal like me Ain't nobody who can steal like me
There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me
I thought someone had heard my plea When I knew that she had followed me There is no one as sweet as she And there ain't nobody who can steal like me
With just my girl for company I thought this is the place to be T'was then I saw I'd found my fee And there ain't nobody who can steal like me
She thought that we were home and free I wish that it was meant to be My little girl's now lost to me Still there ain't nobody who can steal like me
There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me
Now I have flown so far away And I know I won't forget the day I had to let my girl go her own way 'Cause there ain't nobody who can steal like me Ain't nobody who can steal like me
There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me
