Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey Joe
Where you going with that gun in your hand?
Hey Joe
I said, where you going with that gun in your hand?
Oh
[Verse 2]
I'm going down to shoot my old lady
You know, I caught her messing around with another man
I'm going down to shoot my old lady
You know, I caught her messing around with another man
And that ain't too cool
[Verse 3]
Hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
You shot her down, now
Hey Joe
I heard you shot your old lady down
You shot her down to the ground
[Verse 4]
Yes, I did, I shot her
You know, I caught her messing around, messing around town
Yes, I did, I shot her
You know, I caught my old lady messing around town
And I gave her the gun, I shot her!
[Bridge]
Alright
Shoot her one more time again, baby
Yeah, oh, dig it
Alright
[Verse 5]
Hey Joe
Where you gonna run to now?
Where you gonna run to?
Hey Joe, I said
Where you gonna run to now?
Where ya, where ya gonna go?
[Verse 6]
Well, dig, I'm going way down South
Way down to Mexico way, alright
I'm going way down South
Way down where I can be free
Ain't no one gonna find me
[Verse 7]
Ain't no hangman gonna
He ain't gonna put a rope around me
You better believe that now
I gotta go now
[Outro]
Hey Joe
You better run on down, goodbye, everybody
