Pistol Packin' Mama

Pistol Packin' Mama - Pilgrim Singers

Drinking beer in a cabaret

And was I having fun

Until one night she caught me right

And now I'm on the run

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down

She kicked out my windshield

She hit me over the head

She cussed and cried and said I'd lied

And wished that I was dead

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down

Drinking beer in a cabaret

And dancing with a blond

Until one night she shot out the light

Bang that blond was gone

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down

I'll see you every night babe

I'll woo you every day

I'll be your regular daddy

If you'll put that gun away

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down

Drinking beer in a cabaret

And was I having fun

Until one night she caught me right

And now I'm on the run

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down

Now there was old Al Dexter

He always had his fun

But with some lead she shot him dead

His honking days are done

Lay that pistol down babe

Lay that pistol down

Pistol packing mama

Lay that pistol down
