Smackwater Jack (Live)

Now smackwater Jack

He bought a shotgun

'Cause he was in the mood

For a little confrontation

He just a 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

Now big Jim the chief

Stood for law and order

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 streets

For our wives and our daughters

You can't talk to a man

When he don't wanna understand

The account of the capture

Wasn't in the papers

But you know they hanged ol' 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

You know you know you know you can't talk to a man

With a shotgun in his hand

A shotgun in his hand

Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun

Yeah smackwater Jack bought a shotgun

Yes smackwater Jack bought a shotgun

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack yeah

Talkin' 'bout a smackwater Jack oh

Talkin' 'bout Jack and his shotgun talkin' about smack

Talkin' 'bout Jack talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack bought a shotgun

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack bought a shotgun

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack

Talkin' 'bout smackwater Jack

Smackwater Jack
