Jayne, the man they call Jayne
He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne
Our Jayne saw the mudders' backs breakin'
He saw the mudders' lament
And he saw the magistrate takin'
Every dollar and leavin' five cents
So he said "you can't do that to my people"
He said "you can't crush them under your heel"
So Jayne strapped on his hat
And in 5 seconds flat
Stole everythin' Boss Higgins had to steal
He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne
Now here is what separates heroes
From common folk like you and I
The man they call Jayne
He turned 'round his plane
And let that money hit sky
He dropped it onto our houses
He dropped it into our yards
The man they called Jayne
He stole away our pain
And headed out for the stars
He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne.
I shall always remember the tune for that song. It so easy to get it stuck in your head. Lets all face facts: the song is what made this episode![]()
My favourite bit was all of them gazing at the statue... the comments were priceless...
"How come there's a statue of you staring at me looking like I owe him something"...
"I think they really captured his essence..."![]()
"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth"
Ah, one of the first Firefly episodes i saw, loved Jaynes "disguise" the outfit just made him stick out soooo much....And the doc as leader for like two minutes there, i actually thought they'd all get shot. LOL
Two thumbs up for this show!
The tune is catchy.Originally Posted by Carbito
Then to hear Adam Baldwin sing it on the season DVDs (it’s an Easter Egg).

Joss couldn’t have picked a better actor to play Jayne. I loved him as Col. Dixon on Stargate.
It’s almost too difficult to pick a favorite episode in the series, but this one comes close.
IMO always implied.
This is one of the best episodes of the show. the song was just great, and i almost have it memorized( it was a bet). I love the looks on all their faces when the guy started sining the song, it was priceless.

I wonder if we can find it on firefly's main website?
Spoiler:
great epsiode very funny
This episode was so funny, I just like the way that Jayne made a mistake doin a job and became a hero for it ROFLMAO
His face was funny when he found out he was a hero when he thought he had enemies![]()
this episode was hilarious. i loved their reaction to the statue, and the song had me laughing for ages. i can see me watching this episode again and again. it was great
This is one of my favourite eps. The statue scene was great, and the song is fantastic, and so catchy. Great ep![]()
the song is catchy. i like how jayne goes from being kinda mortified that they think of him as a hero, but then starts signing along with them. i think the end of the episode is quite sad thoughOriginally Posted by MB.Eddie
Yes, I have to agree. Kaylee was hilarious with the statue and I found it funny how Simon was acting with Jayne being a hero. At least he got a hamsterOriginally Posted by scifi_girl

I read somewhere that there was an easter egg on the DVD with Adam Baldwin singing the song, but I couldn't find it- is there one?
There is one. I watched it on my dvds a while back.Originally Posted by Trek_Girl42
Directions I found on the internet (I think these were the same ones I used):
- On Disc 4, from the main menu, select Special Features.
- Select More.
- Highlight, but do not select, "Joss Sings the Firefly Theme".
- Press Left-Arrow, highlighting the ornament above.
- Press SELECT.
