Shoot Out On the Plantation (Remastered 95)

Oh, Junior and the drummer are fighting

About a woman in the neighborhood

Oh, the drummer never hit a bad lick in his life

And Junior never hit any good

Yeah, the colonel said that women are for lovin' not fighting

But that didn't clear the air

'Cause Junior's still livin' in the Blackboard Jungle

With his Elvis Presley hair

Yeah, the drummer got the drum

The colonel got the gun

And Junior's only got a knife, he better run

It's a shootout on the plantation

It's so hard to understand

Why do some people have to hurt somebody?

The firewater's not the villain

Yeah, the last one to kiss is the first to shoot

And stabbin' your friend is such a drag to boot

It's a shootout on the plantation

Oh, heaven help Mister Swan

And the cold steel blade is shining

Enough to cause your blood to freeze

But the drummer is drumming a Rolling Stone number

On Junior's head and on his knees

Oh, Oklahoma's lonesome cowboys

Are turned on in Tinsel Town

I knew there'd be some cameras rollin'

If Andy wasn't standin' around

Yeah, the drummer got the drum

The colonel got the gun

And Junior only got a knife, he better run

It's a shootout on the plantation

It's so hard to understand

Why do some people have to hurt somebody?

The firewater's not the villain

Oh, the last one to kiss is the first to shoot

And stabbin' your friend is such a drag to boot

There's a shootout on the plantation

Oh, heaven help Mister Swan, help me

Yeah, now, the drummer's got the drum

The colonel got the gun

And Junior's only got a knife, he better run

It's a shootout on the plantation

It's so hard to understand

Why do some people have to hurt somebody?

The firewater's not the villain

Oh, the last one to kiss is the first to shoot

And stabbin' your friend is such a drag to boot

There's a shootout on the plantation

Oh, heaven help Mister Swan, yeah

Somebody help me

You gotta help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, whoa!

Won't ya help me, help me

Woo, why don't you help me?

Why don't you tell me about it?

Why don't you scream and shout it?

Whoa, won't you help me, help me

Help me, help me, can I help, help, mister

Won't kiss your sister
