CJake ridin' south on the holiest day CHeadin' for the Mexican border CShotgun movin' to the rhythm of his range CJust to help him keep law and order CSits right back just a-takin' it easy CDrinks a shot a whiskey And it makes him mighty Bwheezy CHe coughed hard once CHe coughed hard twice CNeglecting keeping watch Don't mind the sheFriff's advCice, F oh yeah Bb
[Chorus]
F Ridin' Cshotgun Runnin' over lanFd To the Rio Grande Gnow
[Solo] C Bb C Bb C Bb C Bb [Verse 2]
CShots rang down from the rocks above CAnd bore Jake to his feet CHis pants fell down and actin' like a clown CThe bullets had him dancin' to a rock 'n' roll beat CBig Jake did the boogaloo too Got lucky, he cried like a dBrunk CHis aspirations ain't no more for Gyou CAnd that's the way it is F
[Chorus]
