Testo Stagger Lee - Jerry Lee Lewis
Testo della canzone Stagger Lee (Jerry Lee Lewis), tratta dall'album Killer: The Mercury Years Vol. Two (1969-1972)
Ladies and gentlemen, a fine song done by somebody
I don't know who but it's a great song anyway
Hope you enjoy my version of it
I was standing on the corner
When I heard my bulldog bark
He was barkin' at the two men
Who were gamblin' in the dark
It was Stagger Lee and Billy
Two men who gambled late
Stagger Lee threw seven
Billy swore he threw eight
Stagger Lee said, "Billy
I can't let it go that way
You have won all of my money
And my brand-new Stetson hat", alright
Stagger Lee told Billy
"You gotta pay that debt you owe"
He walked into the barroom
And he, he threw out his .44
Play it, Kenny
"Stagger Lee", cried Billy
"Oh, please, don't take my life
I got three little children
And a very sickly wife"
Stagger Lee shot Billy
He shot that poor boy so dead
That the bullet went through Billy
And it broke the bartender's glass, yeah-yeah
Stagger Lee, Stagger Lee
Stagger Lee, Stagger Lee
Stagger Lee, whoa
Shot the bartender's glass
Woo!
Aha, baby
I guarantee you, got an eye on who got this record
(Lloyd Price) Lloyd Price, right!
The name Roy Price, are you sure?
Credits
Writer(s): Lloyd Price, Harold Logan
