Stagger Lee

Harold Logan / Lloyd Price

Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons
Were gambling in the dark
Stagger Lee said to Billy
'Billy Lyons, let's take a walk

Stagger Lee won Billy Lyons' money
And he took his coat and hat
Billy Lyons said to Stagger Lee
'Lord, why d'you gotta do me like that

Billy Lyons said to Stagger Lee
'Please, don't you take my life
I've got two little children
And a poor little homeless wife.'

Well Stagger Lee shot Billy Lyons
And he fell down to his knees
Say 'Lord have mercy
Lord, have mercy if you please.'

And Stagger Lee, he ran to the corner
And he looked up and down
Said 'I'd rather see you Billy
Billy Lyons six feet under the ground.'

Tinana

Tinanananana
Tinananana
Tinananana

Well the people, they started weeping
And some of them began to moan
Everybody worry
poor little Billy Lyons was gone

When I die
I want the Copper Bottom Band
To play the blues
When they lay me down
I want ten thousand women
At my burying ground

Tinana
Tinanana
Tinanananana
Tinanana
Tinananananana
Tinana... oh Tinana
Oh Tinanananana
Tinanana
Tinana
Tinanana
Tinanaaaaa
