stag-o-lee (live, 1978) - professor longhair lyrics
it was early, early one mornin’
when i heard my bulldog bark
he was barkin’ at the two men
who were gamblin in the dark
it was stagolee & billy lion
boys, they were gamblin very late
every time stag threw seven
billy lion told him he threw eight
stagolee lost all of his money
boys and he lost his cadillac
he said i believe you’ve been cheatin
billy, don’t be here when i come back
stagolee went home
and he knocked up on bertha’s door
hе said wake up little bertha baby
and hand mе my forty*four
you know bertha jumped out of the bed screamin
she was lookin in stagolee’s eyes
she said come on in honey
i can see some poor man’s gonna die
stagolee told bertha
that he had lost his new cadillac
but he believed billy was cheatin
and she knew he didn’t go for that
stagolee went back on the corner
boys, hestood up in the barroom door
he said don’t n0body move
cos i got my forty*four
stagolee shot billy lion
oh he shot the poor boy so fast
the bullet went through billy
and it broke the bartenders glass
billy lion started hollerin’
i could heard him say stagolee don’t take my life
you know i got two little children
and a poor little old sickly wife
stagolee told billy
yes i know you got a cute boy & girl
but if you want to see your family
billy, meet ’em in another world
it’s the end of this one
it was early, early one mornin’
when i heard my bulldog bark
he was barkin’ at the two men
who were gamblin in the dark
it was stagolee & billy lion
boys, they were gamblin very late
every time stag threw seven
billy lion told him that he threw eight
stagolee lost all of his money
boys then he lost his cadillac
he said i believe you’ve been cheatin
billy, don’t be here when i come back
stagolee went home
and he knocked up on bertha’s door
he said wake up little bertha baby
and hand me my forty*four
bertha jumped out of the bed screamin
boy, she was lookin dead in stagolee’s eyes
she said come on in honey
i can see some man’s gonna die
stagolee told bertha
that he had lost his cadillac
but he believed billy was cheatin
and she knew he that didn’t go for that
stagolee went back on the corner
boys, he stood up in the barroom door
he said don’t n0body move
because i got my forty*four
take it away
thank you, thank you very much
thank you
let’s give it to the professor, ladies and gentlemen
