Hey Joe,
Where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
Goin' down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messing around with another man,
Goin' down to shoot my old lady
You know I caught her messing around on me,
Hey Joe,
I heard that you shot your old lady down,
Hey Joe,
I heard that you shot your old lady down,

You know, I caught that girl messing around town
Yes I did, I shot her her
You know, I caught that girl messing around town
I took out my gun,
Then I shot her!

Hey Joe,

Way down to Mexico way
Goin' way down south,
Way down where I can be free
