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