Hey, Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
Hey, Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
you know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
you know I found her, found her messin' 'round town
Yes, I did
But, hey, Joe, I heard you shot your woman down
But, hey, Joe, I heard you shot your woman down
Shot her down to the ground, huh
Yes, I did I shot her
You know I found her messin' 'round with another man
That ain't too cool
Yes, I did I shot her
You know I found her messin' 'round, messin' 'round town
So I gave her the gun and I shot her
And, hey, Joe, where you goin' to run to now?
And, hey, Joe, I said, where you goin' to run to now?
Where you gonna go?
I'm goin' way down south, way down to Mexico
I'm goin' way down south, way down to Mexico
Where I'm gonna go
And, hey, Joe, hey, Joe
