Drinkin' beer in a cabaret and was I havin' 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 caussed and cried and said I'd lied and wished I was dead
Lay that pistol down babe...
Drinkin' beer in a cabaret and dancin' with a blonde
Until one night she shot out the light bang that blonde was gone
Lay that pistol down babe...
I'll see you every night babe I'll woo you every day
I'll be your regular daddy if you'll put that gun away
Lay that pistol down babe...
[ harmonica ]
There was old Charlie Walker he always had his fun
But with some lead she shot him dead his honkin' days are gone
Lay that pistol down babe...
Lay that pistol down babe...
Lay that pistol down babe...
