Who Shot Sam

[Verse 1]
Well, I met Sammy Samson down in New Orleans
He had a lot of money and a big limousine
He took us honky-tonkin' on a Saturday night
We met Skinny Minnie, everything was all right
Her eyes started rollin', we should a-went a-bowlin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

[Verse 2]
Well, Sam and Skinny Minnie, about a quarter to four
Was rompin' and a-stompin' on the hardwood floor
Along came Flirty Mirty bargin' in on the fun
Skinny Minnie got jealous and she pulled out a gun
Tables started crashin', forty-four's a-flashin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

[Bridge]
Well, the police, fire chief, highway patrol
Knockin' down the front door with a big long pole
Sammy was a-lyin' on the cold-cold floor
Shot through the middle with a forty-four
Minnie was a-cryin', Sam was surely dyin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

[Verse 3]
Well, they took Skinny Minnie to the jail down town
Booked Skinny Minnie for a-shootin' old Sam
The judge he gave her twenty, Minnie said that's a lot
You shouldn't give me nothing, he was already half shot
A-drinkin' white lightnin' started all the fightin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

[Bridge]
Well, the police, fire chief, highway patrol
Knockin' down the front door with a big long pole
Sammy was a lyin' on the cold-cold floor
Shot through the middle with a forty-four
Mnnie was a-cryin', Sam was surely dyin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my...
