Testo Smackwater Jack - Live at The Montreux Jazz Festival 1973 - Carole King
Testo della canzone Smackwater Jack - Live at The Montreux Jazz Festival 1973 (Carole King), tratta dall'album Live At Montreux 1973
Now Smackwater Jack, he bought a shotgun
Because he was in the mood for a little confrontation
He just let it all hang loose
He didn't think about the noose
He couldn't take no more abuse
So he shot down the congregation
You can't talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand
Now Big Jim the chief stood for law and order, yes he did now
He called for the guard to come and surround the border
Now from his bulldog mouth
As he led the posse south
Came the cry, we got to ride
To clean up the streets for our wives and our daughters, oh Lord, Lord
You can't talk to a man
When he don't want to understand
The account of the capture wasn't in the papers oh no
But you know, they hanged ole Smack right then instead of later
You know the people were quite pleased
'Cause the outlaw had been seized
And on the whole, it was a very good year for the undertaker
You know, you know, you can't talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand
Shotgun in his hand
Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
Oh, Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun
Oh, Smackwater Jack, yeah
Thank you
Thank you
