Lyrics

I said shotgun shoot 'em 'fore he run now do the jerk baby do the jerk now. (Hey). Put on your red dress and then you go down yonder. I said buy yourself a shotgun now, were gonna break it down baby now. We're gonna load it up baby now 'a then you shoot 'em 'fore he run now. I said shotgun shoot 'em 'fore he run now do the jerk baby do the jerk now. (Hey). I said shotgun shoot 'em 'fore he run now do the jerk baby do the jerk now. (Hey). I said Put on your high-heeled shoes. I said we're goin' down here and I listen to 'em play the blues. We're gonna dig potatoes, we're gonna pick tomatoes. I said shotgun shoot 'em 'fore he run now do the jerk baby do the jerk now. (Hey).
