[Verse 1]

Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand?

Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand?

Goin' down to shoot my old lady

You know I caught her mess around with another man

Goin' down to shoot my old lady

You know I caught her mess around with another man

That ain't too cool

[Verse 2]

Hey Joe, heard you shot your woman down

Hey Joe, heard you shot your lady down

Yes I did, I shot her

You know, I caught that girl messin' 'round town

Yes I did, I shot her

You know, I caught that girl messin' 'round town

I took out my gun then I shot her

I shot her

[Verse 3]

Hey Joe, where you gonna run to now?

Hey Joe, where you gonna run to now?

Where you gonna go?

Goin' way down south

Way down the Mexico way

[Verse 4]

Goin' way down south

Way down where I can be free

Ain't no hangman gonna

Get a rope around me

Ain't no hangman gonna

Get a rope around me

[Outro]

Yo, I'm gone
