Shotgun Blues Lyrics

All my life, yeah just about every night I saw my Father as a drunken stranger,

And I heard her cry just about every time she felt his anger, and it broke her body…

Six shots exploded through the action
And I brought peace back into our home,
Would his apologies be proven
Well, I don't care and we'll never know

So I walked away thinking his debt was paid but all I had was my mother, the shotgun and the blues

(slide solo)

So I walked away thinking his debt was paid but all I had was my mother, the shotgun and the blues

But all I had was my mother, the shotgun and the blues
