[1st verse]
Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
Hey Joe, I said where you goin' with that gun in your hand? (Alright)
I'm goin down to shoot my old lady,
you know I caught her messin' 'round with another man. (Yeah)
I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady,

Uh, hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down,

Uh, hey Joe, I heard you shot your old lady down,

Yes, I did, I shot her,
you know I caught her messin' 'round,
messin' 'round town.

you know I caught my old lady messin' 'round town.
And I gave her the gun, I shot her!
