Willie Nelson — Pistol Packin Mama

[Verse 1] Drinking beer in a cabaret And was I having fun Until one night she caught me right And now I'm on the run [Chorus] Lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down [Verse 2] She kicked out my windshield She hit me over the head She cussed and cried and said I'd lied And wished that I was dead [Chorus] Well lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down [Verse 3] Drinkin' beer in a cabaret And dancin' with a blonde 'Til one night she shot out the light Bang, that blonde was gone [Chorus] So lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down [Bridge] I'll see you every night babe I'll woo you every day And I'll be your regular Daddy If you'll put that gun away [Chorus] And just lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down [Instrumental Break] Drinking beer in a cabaret And was I having fun Until one night she caught me right And now I'm on the run [Chorus] Well lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down [Outro] Now there was old Al Dexter He always had his fun But with some lead she shot him dead And his honkin' days are done [Chorus] Now lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down I said lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama I said lay that pistol down Well then I said lay that pistol down babe Lay that pistol down Pistol packin' mama Lay that pistol down
