[Verse 1]
'F I send for my baby and she don't come
'F I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none

[Verse 2]
And if she gets unruly, thinks she don't wan' do
If she gets unruly and thinks she don't wan' do
Take my .32-20, now, and cut her half in two

[Verse 3]
She got a .38 special but I believe it's most too light
She got a .38 special but I believe it's most too light
I got a .32-20, got to make the caps alright

[Verse 4]
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none

[Verse 5]
I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my gatling gun
I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gotta shoot my gatling gun
You made me love you, now your man have come

[Verse 6]
Ahoh, baby, where you stayed last night
Ahah, baby, where you stayed last night
You got your hair all tangled and you ain't talking right
[Verse 7]
Her .38 special, boys, it do very well
Her .38 special, boys, it do very well
I got a .32-20 now, and it's a burning

[Verse 8]
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
All the doctors in West Country sure can't help her none

[Verse 9]
Hey, hey, baby, where you stayed last night
Hey, hey, baby, where you stayed last night
You didn't come home until the sun was shining bright

[Verse 10]
Ahoh boy, I just can't take my rest
Ahoh boy, I just can't take my rest
With this .32-20 laying up and down my breast
