I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had

2- Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming,
Riding a many mile.

If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move out over a little
Farther down the line
Folson Prison Blues - Johnny Cash (Educated guess here)

7- They used to laugh about dyin',
But deep inside 'em they knew
That pretty soon they'd be lyin'
Beneath the ground together
Pushing up daisies to welcome the sun

8- He jacked a little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under
the lightning and the thunder
knew that someone had to stop the rain
Janie's Got A Gun - Aerosmith

9- After Appomattox they were on the losing side
So no amnesty was granted
And as outlaws they did ride
They rode against the railroads,
And they rode against the banks
And they rode against the governor
Never did they ask for a word of thanks

1- I miss my baby and I feel so sad

I fought the law, and the law won. . . . This is old. I'll guess Johnny Cash covered it at some point.

Speaking of off time clapping, I was going to go with Take the Money and Run. But that song kinda proves that crime DOES pay. Meanwhile, Merle turned 21 in prison doing life without parole! That's hardcore, man....
