[Verse 1]
A7
I'm a pistol packin' papa and when I walk down the street
D/A D
You can hear those mamas shoutin': Don't turn your gun on me!

Now girls, I'm just a good guy and I'm goin' to have my fun

And if you don't wanna smell my smoke, don't monkey with my gun!

[Verse 2]
D A7
Like a hobo when he's hungry, like a drunk man when he's full
D
I'm a pistol packin' papa, I know how to shoot the bull
A7
The hold-up men all know me and they sure leave me be
D
I'm a pistol packin' papa and I ramble where I please
[Break]

(yodel)
[Verse 3]
A A7
When I have that funny feeling, that luring ramblers call
D
I swing aboard some freight train and I shoot my pistol off
A
Sometimes one shot will do me, sometimes takes four 'o five
A7 D
Sometimes I shoot all around, before I'm satisfied
[Bridge]
A7
When you hear my pistol poppin', you better hide yourself some place
A D
Cause I ain't made it for stoppin' and I come from a shootin' race
[Break]
| D | A7 | D | A7 |

[Verse 4]
D A7
My sweetheart understands me, she says I am her big shot
D
I'm her pistol packin' daddy and I know I've got the drop
A
You can give new sport roadster, you can take my hard boiled hat
A7 A D
But you can't never take from me, my silver-mounted gad
[Outro]
A7
I'm a pistol packin' papa, I'm goin' to have my fun
A D
Just follow me and you will hear, the barkin' of my gun
