Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
Who ever shot him run out that door
All I know that it was a 44
Everybody turned and looked at me
Lord, I shook my head, I said : 'No, sirree
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
They oughta catch that fella and put him in jail
Throw away the keys, nobody stand his bail
Now if it was me I tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the keys in the deep blue sea
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
Theres only three fellas who'd do a thing like that
High Head, Jo Round and Abazone John
If I hear anything, I'm gonna let you know
I don't believe in shooting no 44, tell me.
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
Who ever shot him run out that door
All I know that it was a 44
Everybody turned and looked at me
Lord, I shook my head, I said : 'No, sirree
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
They oughta catch that fella and put him in jail
Throw away the keys, nobody stand his bail
Now if it was me I tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the keys in the deep blue sea
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
Theres only three fellas who'd do a thing like that
High Head, Jo Round and Abazone John
If I hear anything, I'm gonna let you know
I don't believe in shooting no 44, tell me.
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
Who shot the la-la, I just don't know
Who shot the la-la, I don't know
But I know it was a 44.
