The Gourds - Jones Oh Jones lyrics
[The Gourds - Jones Oh Jones lyrics]
Once I had a friend by the name of Jones
And his idea sure was wrong
You see what Jones has done now Jones
He'd hang around me like a hungry hound
Took my woman and he left this town
Now I'm wonderin' anybody
Anybody if you seen ol' Jones
Jones, oh Jones
Well you know you can't last long
Jones, oh Jones
You better bring my woman back home
Got a with me, gonna buy a Gatlin gun
And when I meet you, Jones
I'm gonna give the buzzards
I got with me, undertaker too
There's a offering money for you too
I'm gonna keep you for myself
I'm gonna kill you dead and bury you
Dig you up for fun
I'm gonna stay and watch the buzzards
Pick the meat off your bones
I'm gonna take my
Chop you through and through
I'm gonna chop you into pieces
Just big enough for stew
And when I get through
Everybody, gonna moan "Jones, oh Jones"
Jones, oh Jones
Well you know you can't last long
Jones, oh Jones
You better bring my woman back home
Well I had a little gal by the name of May
Took her home with me but she wouldn't stay
I had another gal by the name of Minnie
Didn't want one man because
She loved so plenty
Yes I had another gal by the name of Sue
Took her home with me but the she wouldn't do
Got with me, buy a Gatlin gun
And when I met you, Jones
You know it ain't no use to run
Jones, he told me that he was my personal pal
And now I'm up and down this
Town looking for that bum
I even take you to my place
Give you room to stay
I got with me, undertaker too
There's a offering money for you too
I'm gonna keep you for myself
I'm gonna kill you dead and bury you
Dig you up for fun
I'm gonna stay and watch the buzzards
Pick the meat off your bones
I'm gonna take my
Chop you through and through
I'm gonna chop you into pieces
Just big enough for stew
And when I get through
Everybody, gonna moan "Jones, oh Jones"
I'm gonna get you Jones
And his idea sure was wrong
You see what Jones has done now Jones
He'd hang around me like a hungry hound
Took my woman and he left this town
Now I'm wonderin' anybody
Anybody if you seen ol' Jones
Jones, oh Jones
Well you know you can't last long
Jones, oh Jones
You better bring my woman back home
Got a with me, gonna buy a Gatlin gun
And when I meet you, Jones
I'm gonna give the buzzards
I got with me, undertaker too
There's a offering money for you too
I'm gonna keep you for myself
I'm gonna kill you dead and bury you
Dig you up for fun
I'm gonna stay and watch the buzzards
Pick the meat off your bones
I'm gonna take my
Chop you through and through
I'm gonna chop you into pieces
Just big enough for stew
And when I get through
Everybody, gonna moan "Jones, oh Jones"
Jones, oh Jones
Well you know you can't last long
Jones, oh Jones
