Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound
[Verse 2]
Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Whole world's come undone
From looking straight at the sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
[Verse 3]
They say when Janie was arrested
They found him underneath a train
But man, he had it coming
Now that Janie's got a gun
She ain't never gonna be the same
[Verse 4]
Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Dog days just begun
Everybody is on the run
Tell me now, it's untrue
What did her daddy do?
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away, yeah
[Verse 7]
Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Dog days just begun
Now everybody is on the run
And  what did her daddy do?
It's Janie's last I.O.U.
[Verse 8]
She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said, 'cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleaze
He ain't never gonna be the same
[Verse 9]
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away, yeah
[Verse 10]
Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Everybody is on the run
Janie's got a gun
Her dog days just begun
Now everybody is on the run
(Honey, honey, what's the problem?)
Because Janie's got a gun
(Tell me it ain't right)
[Verse 11]
Janie's got a gun
(Was it daddy's cradle robbing that)
Her dog days just begun
(Made you scream at night?)
Now everybody is on the run
[Verse 12]
Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Her dog days just begun
