Lyrics Smackwater Jack

Now Smackwater Jack he bought a shotgun
Because 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
You can't talk to a man with a shotgun in his hand
And now Big Jim the Chief stood for law and order
Well he called for the guard to come and surround the border
Now from his bulldog mouth as he led the posse south
Came the cry, we got to ride to clean up the street for our wives and our daughters
You can't talk to a man when he don't want to understand no no no no no
The account of the capture wasn't in the papers
But you know they hanged ole
Smack right then instead of later
You know the people were quite pleased
'Cos the outlaw had been seized
And on the whole it was a very good year for the undertaker
You know, you know you can't talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand a shotgun in his hands
Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
Yeah Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
Oh Smackwater Jack yeah
Talkin' 'bout
Smackwater Jack yeah
Talkin' 'bout
Smackwater Jack now
