"Shotgun Blues" lyrics

"Shotgun Blues"

Whoa
Yeah, all right
Whoa, ooh, oh
All right

Yeah
Now, I'm a man, baby
I ain't no boy. No more
Well, now I'm a man, baby
I ain't no boy. No more
I spent 12 years in prison
Here I am standing at your door

I go to work in the morning
Your other man come creeping around
Yeah. I go to work every morning
Saw your other man come creeping around
I shot him
'Til I come home with this shotgun, baby
He was dead before he hit the ground
I shot him down
Oh, I shot him down

Oh, I did my time, baby
And I still want you here with me
Well, I served my time, baby
But with you, I will never be free
A broken man all alone
Is what I ain't never gonna be

Whoa. Take it down
All right
Ooh, who
All right
Oh, baby
All right

Oh, I ain't afraid of no man
Whiskey and wine are my only friends
Yes. I ain't afraid of no man
Still got a shotgun in my hands
Well, now I'm afraid to come inside
I just might do it all over again
