Lyrics

I was cuttin' the rug down at a place called The Jug With a girl named Linda Lou When in walked a man with a gun in his hand And he was looking for you know who He said, "Hey there fellow with the hair colored yellow What you trying to prove? 'Cause that's my woman there and I'm a man who cares And this might be all for you" I said, "Excuse me" I was scared and fearing for my life I was shaking like a leaf on a tree 'Cause he was lean, and mean, and Big and bad, Lord, a-pointing that gun at me "Oh wait a minute, mister, I didn't even kiss her Don't want no trouble with you And I know you don't owe me, but I wish you would let me Ask one favor from you" "Oh, won't you give me three steps, gimme three steps, mister Gimme three steps towards the door? Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister And you'll never see me no more For sure" Well, the crowd cleared away and I began to pray And the water fell on the floor And I'm telling you, son, well, it ain't no fun Staring straight down a forty-four Well, he turned and there screamed at Linda Lou And that's the break I was looking for And you could hear me screaming a mile away As I was headed out towards the door "Oh, won't you give me three steps, gimme three steps, mister Gimme three steps towards the door? Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister And you'll never see me no more Show me the back door"
