Pistol Packin' Mama

Drinking beer at the cabaret
 And was I having fun
 'Til one night she caught me right
 And now I'm on the run
 Lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 She kicked out my windshield
 She hit me over the head
 She cussed and cried and said I'd lied
 And wished that I was dead
 Well, lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 Drinking beer in the cabaret
 And dancing with a blond
 'Til one night she shot out the light
 Bang, that blond was gone
 So lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 I'll sing you every night, babe
 And I'll woo you every day
 I'll be your regular daddy
 If you'll put that gun away
 And just lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 Drinking beer at the cabaret
 And was I having fun
 'Til one night she caught me right
 And now I'm on the run
 Now, lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 Now, there was old Al Dexter
 He always had his fun
 But with some lead, she shot him dead
 And his honking days are done
 Now, lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down
 I said, "Lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama"
 I said, "Lay that pistol down"
 I said, "Lay that pistol down, babe
 Lay that pistol down
 Pistol packing mama
 Lay that pistol down"
