Smackwater Jack

Lyrics

[Intro] Woo [Verse 1] Smackwater Jack He bought him a shotgun 'Cause he was in the mood For a little confrontation He just 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 [Chorus] You can't talk to a man With a shotgun in his hand (Shotgun) I'm talkin' 'bout Smack No, no, no, no, no, no (No no, no no no no) [Verse 2] Now, Big Jim the chief He stood for law and order He called for the guard to come And surround the border 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" [Chorus] You can't talk to a man When he don't wanna understand (Shotgun) I'm talkin' 'bout Smackwater Jack No, no, no, no, no, no (No no, no no no no) [Verse 3] The account of the capture Wasn't in the papers But you knew they hanged old 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 [Chorus] You know, you know, you can't talk to a man With a shotgun in his hand (Shotgun) [Outro] 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 Woo Ooh, bought a shotgun Talkin' 'bout Smackwater Jack, yeah, bought a shotgun Smackwater Jack and his shotgun (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Smackwater Jack, yeah (Woo) Smackwater Jack and his shotgun (No, no, no, no, no, no, no) Talkin' 'bout Smack, talkin' 'bout Jack Smackwater Jack and his shotgun
