Stagger Lee

The night was clear and the moon was yellow
 And the leaves came tumbling down
 I was standin' on the corner
 When I heard my bull dog bark
 He was barkin' at the two men
 Who were gamblin' in the dark
 Stagger Lee and Billy
 Two men who gambled late
 Stagger Lee threw a seven
 Billy swore that he threw an eight
 Stagger Lee told Billy
 I can't let you go with that
 You have won all my money
 And my brand new stetson hat
 Stagger Lee went home
 And he got his forty four
 Said, I'm gonna to the bar
 Just to pay that debt I owe
 Blew them, six
 Stagger Lee, Stagger Lee
 Stagger Lee went to the bar room
 And he stood across the bar room door
 Said, now, nobody move
 Then he pulled his forty four
 Stagger Lee, cried Billy
 Ohh, please don't take my life
 I've got three little children
 And a very sickly wife
 Well, Stagger Lee shot Billy
 Ohh, he shot that poor boy so bad
 So the bullet came through Billy
 And it broke the bartender's glass
 Hate that thing on most hands
 Stagger Lee, 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
