         Pistol Packin' Mama
             by Al Dexter         (Died 1984)
                (1942)     
 D                                           A7
Drinking beer in a cabaret and was I having fun
 
Until one night she caught me right 
                    D
And now I'm on the run. 


                                              A7
Lay that pistol down, babe - lay that pistol down
                                      D 
Pistol Packin' Mama, lay that pistol down

. 
                                                    A7
She kicked out my windshield - she hit me over the head 
   
She cussed and cried and said I'd lied 
                       D
And wished that I was dead.

                                               A7
Drinking beer in a cabaret and dancin' with a blond
 
Until one night she shot out the light - Bang! 
                 D
That blond was gone. 


                                                    A7
I'll see you ev'ry night, babe - I'll woo you ev'ry day
                                                     D 
I'll be your regular daddy - if you'll put that gun away. 



Now I went home this morning - the clock was tickin' four 
Gun in her hand, says You're my man, but I don't need you no more.

Now there was old Al Dexter - he always had his fun 
But with some lead, she shot him dead - his honkin' days are done.
