I took a crack at this one to post on my Vintage R&B lyrics page:
http://www.geocities.com/Broadway/Alley/5201/RandB/VintageRandB.html

Corrections are of course welcome. Don't ask me about any deeper
meaning, except that most references are to dance steps and party slang.

Track Title: Shotgun

Album Title: Motown Hitsville, USA, Volume 1 disc 2
Prime Artist: Jr. Walker and the All Stars
Producer: Lawrence Horn
Producer: Berry Gordy

Written by: Autry DeWalt

Lyrics:

<shotgun blast>
<sax intro>

I said, Shotgun!
Shoot a boy right now
Do the jerk, baby
Do the dirty now
Hey

Put on your red dress
And then you go downtown now
I said, Buy yourself a shotgun now
We're going to break it down baby now
We're going to load it up baby now
Oh can you shoot a boy right now

I said, Shotgun!
Shoot a boy right now
Do the jerk, baby
Do the dirty now
Hey

<sax solo>

Shotgun!
Shoot a boy right now
Do the jerk, baby
Do the dirty now
Hey

Put on your high heel shoes
I said we're going down here listen to 'em play the blues
We're gonna dig with Ada (??)
We're gonna pick tomatoes

I said, Shotgun!
Shoot a boy right now
Do the jerk, baby
Do the dirty now
Hey

I said it's twine time
I said it's twine time
I said it's twine time
Hey, look at that

<sax outro>
