The Lyrics

Swell, I shot a wolfman; who brought him down, that’s me. Oh yeah!
I say, I shot a wolfman; brought him down, nicely. Oh yeah!
Well, he was runnin’ toward me to feed;
Yeah, he was a wild fiend indeed.
I shot a wolfman; what brought him down was silvery, oh yeah!

He’d go out runnin’ till the early mornin’—bloody spree,
So I went gunnin’ till the early mornin’—what’d I see?
I saw him runnin’ down Missie,
So I gunned him mercilessly.
I shot a wolfman; where he’s brought down was sylvany, oh yeah!

He would become one every night,
But the changes were comin’—those teeth were a fright.
It took gunnin’ to defeat him; it was I alone. . .
Hit that bad wolfman’s face. Before he croaked, groaned a moan.

I shot a wolfman; who brought him down, that’s me. Oh yeah!
Say, I shot a wolfman; brought him down. . .bit me? Oh no!
He needed wastin’; I got the upper hand. . .
The slug from Lone Ranger land.
I shot a wolfman; what brought him down was silvery, oh yeah!

You know, it’s now safe at night
’cause he won’t give you a bite,
Safe at night, get no bite,
Oh no, oh no!

JAB - So, you shot a wolfman, eh? Then how do you explain Larry Talbott's body lying here? LOL at Lone Ranger Land. ;D
