lyrics

Daddy’s pistol ain’t been working
Since he’s been working overtime
Ain’t gotta put bread on the table
Guess it’s time I make her mine

Jimmy Black he owes me plenty
For the score I fronted him last fall
But he swears he ain’t got a penny
Let’s see if daddy’s pistol will make him talk

I ain’t coming home tonight
But I left a letter for Rose
Everything I did was for us
But I enjoyed it, I suppose

I don’t remember when it got so dark
Never been one for making plans
It’s always easier to react
So says Jimmy’s blood on my hands

I ain’t coming home tonight
But I left a letter for Rose
Everything I did was for us
But I enjoyed it, I suppose

One more phone call
One last meal
Sodium Thiopental
Nothing left to feel

Daddy’s pistol is retired now
Locked up tight in the evidence room
I’m making plans to get out
Go tell Rose I will see her soon

about

Tucker Riggleman & The Cheap Dates Morgantown, West Virginia

“Musically, 'Shotgun' sounds like the result of Steve Earle hopping on stage with Big Star in a dimly lit dive bar with a healthy dose of early Old 97’s. Riggleman’s voice rings with a prophetic honesty over overdriven guitar chords. The song’s mid-tempo lilt sounds like the open road."
