Hey Joe

Hey Joe, where you goin'
With that gun in your hand?
Hey Joe, I said where you goin'
With that gun in your hand?
I'm goin down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man
I said I'm goin' down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messin' 'round with another man

Hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down
Hey Joe, I heard you shot you old lady down
Yes, I did
You know I caught her messin' 'round
Messin' 'round town
Yes I did, I shot her

You know I caught my old lady messin' 'round town
And I gave her the gun and I shot her!

Where you goin' to run
To now, where you, where you gonna go?
