1
The night was clear and the moon was yellow
2
And the leaves came tumbling down
3
I was standing on the corner
4
When I heard my bulldog bark
5
He was barking up at the two men
6
Who were gambling in the dark
7
It was stagger lee and billy
8
Two men who gambled late
9
Stagger lee threw a seven
10
Billy swore, he threw an eight
11
Stagger lee told "billy,
12
I can't let you get away with that
13
Well, you've won all my money
14
And my brand new stetson hat"
15
Stagger lee ran home
16
Went and got him his 44
17
Said, "I'm going to the bar room
18
Just to pay that debt that I owe"
19
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
20
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
21
Said, "i' m going to the bar room
22
Just to pay that debt that I owe"
23
Stagger lee went to the bar room
24
Boy, he stood across the bar room doors
25
Said, "now, nobody move"
26
And he pulled out his 44
27
"stagger lee", cried billy
28
"oh, please don't you take my life
29
I got me three little children
30
And a very sickly wife"
31
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
32
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
33
"got me three little children
34
And a very, very sickly wife"
35
Stagger lee shot billy
36
Boy, he shot that poor boy so bad
37
That the bullet came thru billy
38
And went right thru the bartender's glass
39
While I was standing on the corner
40
When I heard my bulldog bark
41
He was barking up at the two men
42
Who were gambling in the dark
43
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
44
Go stagger lee, go stagger lee
45
Well, he was barking up at the two men
46
Who were gambling in the dark
