i was cutting the rug down at place called the jug |
| [00:49.255] |
with a girl named linda lou |
| [00:52.211] |
when in walked a man with a gun in his hand |
| [00:57.11] |
and he was looking for you know who. |
| [00:59.495] |
he said,'hey there,fellow with the hair colored yellow, |
| [01:04.415] |
whatcha tryin'to prove? |
| [01:07.427] |
'cause that's my woman there and i'm a man who cares |
| [01:11.639] |
and this might be all for you.' |
| [01:14.55] |
i said,'excuse me.' |
| [01:17.87] |
i was scared and fearing for my life, |
| [01:36.162] |
i was shaking like a leaf on a tree |
| [01:39.314] |
'cause he was lean,mean,big and bad,lord, |
| [01:44.278] |
pointin'that gun at me. |
| [01:46.414] |
'oh,wait a minute,mister,i didn't even kiss her. |
| [01:51.384] |
don't want no trouble with you. |
| [01:53.674] |
and i know you don't owe me but i wish you'd let me |
| [01:58.208] |
ask one favor from you.' |
| [02:00.886] |

| [02:04.671] |
gimme three steps,gimme three steps,oh mister, |
| [02:07.79] |
gimme three steps toward the door? |
| [02:09.574] |
gimme three steps,gimme three steps,oh mister, |
| [02:13.788] |
and you'll never see me no more.' |
| [02:16.581] |
for sure |
| [02:19.725] |
well the crowd cleared away and i began to pray |
| [02:54.847] |
and the water fell on the floor. |
| [02:57.12] |
and i'm telling you,son,it ain't no fun |
| [03:00.987] |
staring straigth down a forty-four. |
| [03:03.284] |
well,he turned and screamed at linda lou |
| [03:07.660] |
and that's the break i was looking for. |
| [03:10.732] |
well,you could hear me screaming a mile away |
| [03:14.854] |
as i was headed out toward the door. |
| [03:17.864] |

| [03:21.668] |
gimme three steps,gimme three steps,oh mister, |
| [03:24.154] |
gimme three steps toward the door? |
| [03:26.661] |
