Probably not a good idea to mess with a guy whose name is Andrew Jackson.

During the course of the battery he entered an adjoining apartment? So he’s beating a woman, drags her outside, and breaks into the next door apartment? So trite.

Possible. Hard to believe you escape the threatening environment and enter into another.

Wasn’t Johnny Hornton the original? Looking at the links on my Google search, I thought Johnny Cash did a rendition.

You’re right. Didn’t realize Johnny Cash had recorded a version.
