Hey Joe where you goin with that gun of yours
Said hey Joe, I said, 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, mm
Said I'm goin down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messin round with another man, huh that ain't too cool

Hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down now
Say hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down, shot her down in the ground
Yes I did, I shot her huh
You know I caught my ol lady messin round town
Aha I said yes I did, I shot her
You know I caught my woman messin round town
So I gave her the gun baby, hah, I shot her
Uh shoot her one more time

Hey Joe where you gonna run to now
I said hey Joe where you gonna run to now, where you gonna go
I'm goin way down south, way down to Mexico way
I said I'm goin way down south way down where I can be free, yes lord oh
Ain't no hangman gonna he ain't gonna put no rope around me
Gotta go baby, watch me now
