professor longhair - stagger lee (live) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it was early, early one mornin’
when i heard my bulldog bark
he was barkin’ at the two men
who was gamblin in the dark

[verse 2]
it was stagolee and billy lion
boys, they gambled there very late
everytime stagger threw seven
billy lion told him that he threw eight

[verse 3]
stagolee lost all of his money
and he lost his brand new cadillac
he said i believe your cheatin’, billy
don’t be here when i come back

[verse 4]
stagolee went home
and he knocked up on his girly’s door
he said wakе up little bertha, baby
and hand me my forty+four

[verse 5]
you know bеrtha jumped out of bed screamin’
boy, she was lookin’ in stagolee’s eyes
she said come on in inside
i can see some poor man’s gonna die
[verse 6]
stagolee told bertha
that he had lost his cadillac
but he believed billy was cheatin’
and she knew he didn’t go for that

[verse 7]
stagolee went back on the corner
and he stood up in the barroom door
he said don’t n0body move
because i got my forty+four

[verse 8]
stagolee shot billy lion
oh, he shot the poor boy so fast
the bullet went through billy
and it broke the bartender’s glass

[verse 9]
i heard billy lion started to screamin’
heard him say stagolee, don’t take my life
you know i got two little children
and a poor little old sickly wife

[verse 10]
stagolee told billy
yes, i know you got a cute little boy and girl
but if you wanna meet your family, billy
meet ’em in another world
