Drinkin' beer in a cabaret
Was I havin' fun
Until one night
She caught me right
And now I'm on the run
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
She kicked out my windshield
And she hit me over the head
She cussed and cried
And said I lied
And wished that I was dead
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
Drinkin' beer in a cabaret
And dancing with a blonde
Til one night
She shot out the lights
Bang That blonde was gone
So lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
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
Just lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
Drinkin' beer in a cabaret
Was I havin' fun
Until one night
She caught me right
And now I'm on the run
Well
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
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
Oh 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
Lay that pistol down
I said
Lay that pistol down babe
Lay that pistol down
Pistol Packin' Mama
Lay that pistol down
