If I send for my baby
And she don't come
If I send for my baby
Man, and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs
Sure can't help her none
And if she gets unruly
Thinks she don't wan do
If she gets unruly
Thinks she don't wan do
Take my 32-20 now and
Cut her half in two
She got a 38 special, but I believe its much too light
She got a 38 special, but I believe its much too light
I got a 32-20, got to make the camps alright
If I send for my baby
And she don't come
If I send for my baby
Man, and she don't come
All the doctors in hot springs
Sure can't help her none
I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my gatlin gun
I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gotta shoot my gatlin gun
You made me love you
Now your man has come
Ah-oh
Baby, where you stay last night?
Ah-ah
Baby, where you stayed last night?
You got your hair all tangled
And you ain't talkin right
Got a 38 special, boys, it do very well
