"Pistol Packin Mama" lyrics
(originally by Al Dexter)
Drinking beer in a cabaret and was I having fun
Until one night she caught me right and now I'm on the run
Lay that pistol down, babe - lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' 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
Drinking beer in a cabaret and dancin' with a blond
Until one night she shot out the light - Bang! that blond was gone
I'll see you ev'ry night, babe - I'll woo you ev'ry day
I'll be your regular daddy - if you'll put that gun away
Now there was old Al Dexter - he always had his fun
But with some lead, she shot him dead - his honkin' days are done
Until one night she caught me right and now I'm on the run
Lay that pistol down, babe - lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' 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
Drinking beer in a cabaret and dancin' with a blond
Until one night she shot out the light - Bang! that blond was gone
I'll see you ev'ry night, babe - I'll woo you ev'ry day
I'll be your regular daddy - if you'll put that gun away
Now there was old Al Dexter - he always had his fun
But with some lead, she shot him dead - his honkin' days are done
