Letra:

[English]

I said shotgun

Shoot 'em for he run now

Do the jerk baby

Do the jerk now

Hey

Put on your red dress

And then you go downtown now

I said buy yourself a shotgun now

We're gonna break it down, baby now

We're gonna load it up, baby now

And then you shoot him for he run now

I said shotgun

Shoot 'em for he run now

Do the jerk baby

Do the jerk now

Hey

...

Shotgun

Shoot 'em for he run now

Do the jerk baby

Do the jerk now

Hey

Put on your high heel shoes

I said we're goin' down here to listen to 'em play the blues

We're gonna dig potatoes

We're gonna pick tomatoes

I said shotgun

Shoot 'em for he run now

Do the jerk baby

Do the jerk now

Hey

I said it's twine time

I said it's twine time

I said it's twine time

Hey, what'd I say?
