Lyrics

Well, the first time I shot Ella I shot her through the side Second time, I, could not tell where But the third time I shot her I shot her through the head You know that shot, musta killed, poor Ella dead When they all, got the news That Ella speed was dead They goes home, and dresses up in red There was two white horses Side in side Gonna take Ella, for a last flowery ride Ella 'fore she died Last words she said Tell my sisters, please don't do like me That's fall in love with everyone With everyone that you see One of these mornings while you're having fun Somebody gonna do, like Ella done Now Ella, she went out Just to have some fun She got shot down, with a Colt 41 Well, they shot Ella once Didn't shoot her no more She staggered accross, the ballroom floor Ain't it hard Man, but it's true You can love someone, don't love you Well, the last words I heard Ella say Tell my sisters, don't do like me That is fall in love with everyone With everyone that you see
