I Didn’t Know The Gun Was Loaded The Andrews Sisters

Oh Miss Effie was her name
Through the west she won her fame
Being handy with a gun
But she drove the men insane

'Cause she'd whip out her pistol and shoot most any guy
And sing out this alibi

I didn't know the gun was loaded
And I'm so sorry my friend
I didn't know the gun was loaded
And I'll never never do it again

But one night she made a slip
Shot the sheriff in the hip
So the law it took a hand
And made Effie take the stand
And she pled, "Oh, your honor
I know you'll turn me loose
When you hеar my one excuse"

I didn't know (shе didn't know) the gun was loaded
And I'm so (and I'm so) sorry my friend
I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded
And I'll never never do it again
