[Verse]
N.C.
Now Smackwater Jack, he bought a 
shotgun
Bm    D  A          D          
Cause he was in the mood for a 
                     G
little confrontation
D       Em         G
He just let it all hang loose
   A
He didn't think about the noose
                    F#m  G
He couldn't take no more abuse
                    D
So he shot down the congregation

[Chorus]
          A         Bm
You can't talk to a man
A      D              G
With a shotgun in his hand
D       G    D
Shotgun

[Verse]
Bm                D
Now Big Jim the chief stood for law 
and order
                        Bm         
He called for the guard to come and
 D
 surround the border
Bm           D
Now from his bulldog mouth
   Em         G
As he led the posse south

Came the cry, we got to ride
G                    Em      D  
Clean up the streets for our 
           Dm         D
wives and our daughters

[Chorus]
A                   Bm
You can't talk to a man
A             D       G         Em
When he don't want to understand
G       D   A
No, no, no, no, no, no

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
The account of the capture wasn't in
            Bm  D
 the papers
But you know, they hanged ole Smack 
                   G  D
right then instead of later
         Dm         D
You know the people were quite 
pleased
          G
Cause the outlaw had been seized
           A                       
And on the whole, it was a very 
  G
good year
        D
For the undertaker

[Chorus]
                              A    
You know, you know, you can't talk 
     Bm
to a man
G      A   D          Em   A
With a shotgun in his hand
G              Dm
Shotgun in his hand
