Old Uncle Sam come down the road, tall and straight and slim He had a shotgun in his hand and his face was hard and grim His heels was kickin up the dust with every step he took And when I asked him what was wrong his whiskers fairly shook I ain't got time to talk says he, I'm in a powerful stew So get your gun and come along, we've got a job to do A varmint's hangin 'round my house, sneaky dirty feller, And the stripes that's runnin' down his back ain't white in fact they's yeller So get your gun and come along we're fixin to kill a skunk We've done it before and we'll do it again and neighbor that's no bunk Every one in the USA is sick of the little punk So get your gun and come along we're fixin to kill a skunk This varmint's had his way too long spreadin his aweful smell And messin up a lotta homes where decent people dwell But now he's gone a little too far, struttin and prancin about 'Cause when he gets in my neighborhood brother he better look out I like my home the way it is and I like it more every day And as long as I'm able to pack this gun, I'm goinna keep it that way But I know how to deal with him, I've handled his kind before It won't be fun, but the job'll be done and I'll nail his hide to the door So get your gun and come along we've got a skunk to kill We'll poke him outta the woodpile and chase him over the hill When we get done with the son-of-a-gun he'll know he bit off a hunk So get your gun and come along we're fixin to kill a skunk I recollect one other time 20 some years ago Another skunk come prowlin' around and at first I just let him go I tried my best to leave him alone but he wore my patience thin So I had to get my shotgun out and you know what happened to him Well after that I kinda relaxed and laid my gun away But now that smell has started again and it's gettin' worse every day So here I am on the varmint's trail and neighbor I'm tellin' you That skunk had better hunt a hole for him and all of his crew So get your gun and come along we've got a skunk to skin We'll grab his tail and give it a yank and pull it off over his chin We'll chase him back to his dirty den and make it a pile of junk So get your gun and come along we're fixin to kill a skunk
