[Intro]

Ow


[Chorus]

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose


[Verse 1]

And now you're blowin' smoke

I think you're one big joke

Me? I got a lot to learn

And I'm still waitin' for the heads to turn

You say I walk a line

Fuck, they move it every time

You walk a mile in my shoes

And then you tell me 'bout singin' the blues


[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, you get what you pay for

And freedom's real high priced

And while you're rippin' off children

Somebody's fuckin' your wife

Ooh, it's never made a difference

It's only how you survive


[Chorus]

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose


[Verse 2]

And now you ask me why

I said, "It's do or die"

I'll stick it right in your face

And then I'll put you in your motherfuckin' place

And you, you can suck my ass

And I think it's so low class

Me? I'm just so concerned

I'm still waitin' for your ass to burn


[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, you want a confrontation?

I'll give you every fuckin' chance

With your verbal masturbation

Me? I just like to dance

How's that for provocation?

I'm just makin' a stance


[Bridge]

An' I'm tired of the frustration

Of livin' inside of your lies

And I'm wired on indignation

I said somebody's got to die, oh yeah


[Guitar Solo]

Ha

Oh

C'mon

Oh


[Chorus]

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

Listen motherfucker, you're about to pay your dues

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues

If you're goin' up against me, then you know you're gonna lose


[Outro]

Oh, I know

I know (There's ways)

I know (That we)

I know (Can find)

You think anyone with an IQ over fifteen (I know)

Is gonna believe your shit (I know)

Fuckhead (I know)

Oh

Nothin' but a fuckin' pussy
