'Oh Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson
Why do you close up shop so late?"
'Just fitted out a girl who looked like a bird
Measured .32, .44, .38'...
The song and artist?
Clue: The songwriter is neither American nor European.
PS: If you use Google, the Chief Yamster will lock you in a padded cell with just Michael Bolton, a microphone and a 5,000 W sound system for company. Mwah ha ha.

Crow Jane......Jane Crow,Crow Jane,Horrors in her head,That her tongue dare not name.Lived all alone by the river,The rolling rivers of pain.Crow Jane....Crow Jane,Crow Jane,Ah hah huh.
There is one shining eye on a hard hat,Company closed down the mine.Winking on the waters they came,Twenty hard-hats,twenty eyes.In her clapboard shack,Just six foot by five,They killed all her whisky.Poured their pistols dry.Crow Jane Crow Jane,Crow Jane,Ah hah huh.Seems you've remembered,How to sleep,how to sleep.The house dogs are in your turnips,And your yard dogs are running all over the streets,Crow Jane Crow Jane,Crow Jane Ah hah huh."O Mr. Smith and Mr.Wesson,Why you close up shop so late?" "Just fitted out a girl who looked like a bird,Measured 32,.44,.38 Asked that girl which road she was taking,Said she was walkin' the road of HATE.But she hopped on a coal-trolly up to New Haven,Population 48" Crow Jane Crow Jane,Crow Jane Ah hah huh.Your guns are drunk and smokin' They have followed you to the gate.Laughing all the way back from the new town...Population,now,28.....Crow Jane Crow Jane,Crow Jane,Ah hah huh....

It's Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
Can't remember the song title though.
I asked that girl which road she was taking and she said the road of hate...
