Jeannie Needs a Shooter (Live, 1980) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was born down by the river where the dirty water flows
And the cold wind cut through me, it cut right through my clothes
And the anger and the yearning, like fever in my veins
Set the fire burnin'

[Verse 2]
Now she came down from Knightstown with her hands hard from the line
From the first time I laid eyes on her, I knew that she'd be mine
Her father was a lawman, who swore he'd shoot me dead
'Cause he knew I wanted Jeannie, and I'd have her like I said

[Chorus]
Now, Jeannie needs a shooter
Shooter like me
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
Shooter on her side
Jeannie needs a shooter, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
Let's go

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
We met down by the river on the final day in May
And when I leaned down to kiss her, she did not turn away
I drew out all my money and together we did vow
To leave that very evening and get away somehow

[Chorus]
Jeannie needs a shooter
Shooter like me
Yeah, Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
A shooter on her side
Jeannie needs a shooter
Yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Jeannie needs a shooter, hey
Jeannie needs a shooter

[Verse 4]
The night was cold and rainy down by the borderline
I was riding hard to meet her when a shot rang out behind
Layin' there in the darkness with a pistol by my side
Jeannie and her father rode off into the night

[Outro]
Now, Jeannie needs a shooter
Thank you
