ch' dum dum dum, honey what have you done
ch' dum dum dum, it's the sound of my gun
ch' dum dum dum, honey what have you done
ch' dum dum dum, it's the sound, it's the sound
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
whole world's come undone
lookin' straight at the sun
what did her daddy do
what did he put you through
they say when Janie was arrested
they found him underneath a train
but man he had it comin'
now that Janie's got a gun
she ain't never gonna be the same
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
dog days just begun
now everybody is on the run
tell me now it's untrue
what did her daddy do
he jacked a little bitty baby
the man has got to be insane
they say the spell that he was under
the lightning and the thunder
knew that someone had to stop the rain
run away, run away from the pain
run away, run away from the pain
run away, run away
run, run away
what did her daddy do
it's Janie's last I-O-U
she had to take him down easy
and put a bullet in his brain [alt: she left him in the pouring rain]
she said 'cause nobody believes me
the man was such a sleaze
he ain't never gonna be the same
honey honey, what's the problem
tell me it ain't right
was it your daddy's cradle-robbin' that
made you scream at night
