Step up buddies and listen to my song
I'll sing it to you
right, but you may sing it wrong
The song about a man they call Otto Wood
I can't tell you
all, but I wish I could
He stopped in a pawn shop a rainy day
And then he had a
quarrel with the clerk, they say
He pulled out his pistol and struck a fatal blow
And this
is the way the story goes
Otto Wood, why didn't you run?
Otto Wood, he's dead
and gone
Otto, why didn't you run
When the sheriff pulled out his 44
gun
They spread the news as fast as they could
The sheriff served a warrant on Otto
Wood
The jury said murder in the second degree
And the judge passed sentence to the
peniteniary
They put him in the pen, but it done no good
'Cause it wouldn't hold a
man they call Otto Wood
It wasn't very long till he slipped outside
Pulled a gun on a
guard, said, "Take me for a ride"
The second time they caught him was way out
west
In a holdup game, he got shot through the breast
They brought him back and when he
got well
They locked him down in a dungeon cell
He was a man that could not
run
For he always toted a 44 gun
He loved the women and he hated the law
He just
didn't take nobody's jaw
He rambled out west and he rambled all around
Till he met
two sheriffs in a southern town
They said, "Otto, step to the way
For we've been expecting
you every day"
He pulled out his gun and then he said
"Make a crooked move and you
both fall dead
You better crank up your car and take me out of town"
But a few minutes
later, he was graveyard bound
