stagger lee - mickey gilley lyrics

[intro]
the night was clear and the ol’ moon, lord, was yellow
and the leaves came tumbling
they came tumbling down

[verse 1]
well, i was standing on the corner
when i heard my bulldog bark
he was barking at the two men who were gambling in the dark
it was stagger lee and billy
two men who’re gambling late
stagger lee threw seven, billy swore that he threw eight

[chorus]
stagger lee told billy
“i can’t let you go with that
ha, you have won all my money and my brand new stetson hat”
stagger lee went home (ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh)
oh, hе got his forty*four (ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh)
he said, “i’m going to the barroom just to pay that debt i owе” (ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh)
yes i am, oh

[verse 2]
stagger lee went to the barroom
he stood across the barroom door
he said, “now n0body move”, and he pulled out his forty*four
yes, he did
“stagger lee,” cried billy (stagger lee, stagger lee)
“oh, please don’t take my life (stagger lee, stagger lee)
i got three little children and a very sickly wife”
[verse 3]
stagger lee, he shot billy (stagger lee, stagger lee)
oh, he shot that poor boy so bad (stagger lee, stagger lee)
the bullet came through billy and it broke the bartender’s glass

[verse 3]
stagger lee, he shot billy (stagger lee, go stagger lee)
oh, he shot that poor boy so bad (stagger lee, go stagger lee)
the bullet came through billy and it broke the bartender’s glass
yes it do, honey, huh, huh

[outro]
go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee
go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee
go, stagger lee, go (stagger lee)
go (stagger lee)

go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee
go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee
go (stagger lee, go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee)

(go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee)
(go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee)
(go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee)
(go, stagger lee, go, stagger lee)
