Smackwater Jack

Now, Smackwater Jack
 He bought a shotgun
 'Cause he was in the mood
 For a little confrontation
 He just a-let it all hang loose
 He didn't think about the noose
 He couldn't take no more abuse
 So he shot down the congregation
 You can't talk to a man
 With a shotgun in his hand (shotgun)
 ♪
 Now, Big Jim the chief
 Stood for law and order
 He called for the guard to come
 And surround the border
 Now, from his bulldog mouth
 As he led the posse south
 Came the cry, "We got to ride
 To clean up the streets
 For our wives and our daughters" (oh, no, no)
 You can't talk to a man
 When he don't wanna understand
 No, no, no, no, no
 ♪
 The account of the capture
 Wasn't in the papers
 But you know they hanged ol' Smack right then
 Instead of later
 You know, the people were quite pleased
 'Cause the outlaw had been seized
 And on the whole, it was a very good year
 For the undertaker
 You know, you know, you can't talk to a man
 With a shotgun in his hand
 A shotgun in his hand (Smackwater Jack, yeah)
 Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
 Yeah, Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
 Oh, Smackwater Jack, yeah (Smackwater Jack, yeah)
 Talkin' 'bout Smackwater Jack, yeah (ooh, and a shotgun)
 Talkin' 'bout a-Smackwater Jack, oh
 Talkin' 'bout Jack and his shotgun
 Talkin' 'bout Smack
 Talkin' 'bout Jack
 Smackwater Jack, yeah
