| [00:47.44] |
I was cutting the rug |
| [00:48.94] |
Down at a place called The Jug |
| [00:50.64] |
With a girl named Linda Lou |
| [00:53.53] |
|
| [00:54.59] |
When in walked a man |
| [00:55.98] |
With a gun in his hand |
| [00:57.86] |
And he was looking for you know who. |
| [01:00.93] |
|
| [01:01.49] |
He said, "Hey there fellow, |
| [01:03.81] |
With the hair colored yellow, |
| [01:05.75] |
|
| [01:06.26] |
Watcha tryin' to prove? |
| [01:08.27] |
|
| [01:08.90] |
'Cause that's my woman there |
| [01:10.66] |
And I'm a man who cares |
| [01:12.28] |
And this might be all for you." |
| [01:15.35] |
|
| [01:16.93] |
I said excuse me |
| [01:18.38] |
|
| [01:34.60] |
I was scared and fearing for my life. |
| [01:37.68] |
I was shakin' like a leaf on a tree. |
| [01:40.89] |
|
| [01:41.45] |
'Cause he was lean, mean, |
| [01:43.64] |
Big and bad, Lord, |
| [01:45.13] |
A Pointin' that gun at me. |
| [01:48.03] |
|
| [01:48.59] |
I said, "Wait a minute, mister, |
| [01:52.93] |
I didn't even kiss her. |
| [01:54.18] |
Don't want no trouble with you. |
| [01:55.82] |
And I know you don't owe me |
| [01:58.19] |
But I wish you'd let me |
| [02:00.01] |
Ask one favor from you." |
| [02:02.40] |
|
| [02:05.35] |
"Oh Won't you give me three steps, |
| [02:07.12] |
Gimme three steps mister, |
| [02:08.33] |
Gimme three steps towards the door? |
| [02:11.95] |
Gimme three steps |
| [02:13.77] |
Gimme three steps mister, |
| [02:15.57] |
And you'll never see me no more." |
| [02:18.52] |
|
| [02:20.05] |
For sure |
| [02:21.11] |
|
| [02:51.86] |
Well the crowd cleared away |
| [02:53.50] |
And I began to pray |
| [02:55.06] |
As the water fell on the floor. |
| [02:58.02] |
|
| [02:58.75] |
And I'm telling you son, |
| [03:00.32] |
Well, it ain't no fun |
| [03:02.02] |
Staring straight down a forty-four. |
| [03:05.77] |
Well he turned and screamed at Linda Lou |
| [03:09.35] |
And that's the break I was looking for. |
| [03:12.86] |
And you could hear me screaming a mile away |
| [03:15.87] |
As I was headed out toward the door. |
| [03:19.51] |
|
| [03:22.09] |
"Oh Won't you give me three steps, |
| [03:23.84] |
Gimme three steps mister, |
| [03:25.03] |
Gimme three steps towards the door? |
| [03:28.24] |
|
| [03:28.99] |
Gimme three steps |
| [03:30.78] |
Gimme three steps mister, |
| [03:32.34] |
And you'll never see me no more." |
| [03:35.72] |
|
| [03:37.27] |
Show me the back door |
