Shotgun Blues |
| Yes, I said, go bring me my shotgun |
| Oh, bring me back some shells |
| Yes, I said, go bring me my shotgun |
| Oh, bring me back a pocket full of shells |
| Yes, if I don’t get some competition |
| You know there’s gonna be trouble here |
| Yes, you know my woman tried to quit me |
| When I ain’t done nothin' wrong |
| She done put me out of doors |
| But I even ain’t got no home as it goes |
| Bring me my shotgun |
| Oh Lord, and a pocket full of shells |
| Yes, if I don’t get some competition |
| You know there’s gotta be trouble here |
| Yes, you know that my momma told me |
| The day that I left the door |
| She said, «I ain’t gonna have bad luck, son |
| And I don’t care where you go» |
| Just bring me my shotgun |
| Boy, you can bring just one or two shells |
| Yes, if I don’t get some competition |
| You know there’s gotta be trouble here |
| I’m gonna play it just a minute right now |
| Well, I cried, «Bye-bye, baby |
| You know you done me wrong» |
| I’m gonna take my little shotgun now |
| And I’m gonna carry it back home |
| I said one in the morning |
| I’m gonna carry my shotgun home |
| Yes, I figure the best thing I can do |
| Why did I leave that woman alone? |
