Guitar and saxophone intro

Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packin' mama
Lay that pistol down

Drinkin' beer in a cabaret
Boys were havin' fun
Until one night
She shot out the light
And now I'm on the run

Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packin' mama
Lay that pistol down

Let’s go!
Guitar break

Drinkin' beer in a cabaret
Boys were havin' fun
Until one night
She shot out the light
And now I'm on the run

Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packin' mama
Lay that pistol down

Here we go now!
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packin' mama
Lay that pistol down
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packin' mama
Lay that pistol down

Je ne sais pas si tu poses la question, Manu ?

Si oui, je pense que c'est le riff qui ressemble un peu à celui de Something Else dans la version de Gene, arrangement qui la différencie avec les autres interprétations.

PACKING MAMA

Lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downOh, drinking beer in a cabaret
Was I having fun
Until one night she caught me right
And now I'm on the runOh, lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downOh, she kicked out my windshield
And she hit me over the head
She cussed and cried and said I lied
And she wished that I was deadOh, lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downOh, drinking beer in a cabaret
And dancin' with a blond
Until one night she shot out the light
Bang! that blond was goneOh, lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downOh, I'll sing you every night, babe
And I'll woo you every day
I'll be your regular daddy
If you'll put that gun awayOh, lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downNow 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."Lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downNow there was old Al Dexter
He always had his fun
But with some lead, she shot him dead
His honkin' days are done.Lay that pistol down, babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol downOh, pistol packing mama
Lay that pistol down
