10. Stagger Lee (2:37)

Coulda been on a rainy morning,
Coulda been on a rainy night
Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons they had a great fight
Talkin' bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons they met on a gamblin day
Billy Lyons drew 7, Stagger Lee swore that he'd drew 8
Talkin bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

Stagger Lee said Billy Lyons, you know I can't go for that
You done stoled all my money and my brand new Stetson hat
Talkin bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

Billy Lyons said Stagger Lee please don't take my life
I've got two loving children and a darling loving wife
Talkin bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

I don't care about your children or your darling loving wife
You done stoled all my money, now I'm bound to take your life
Talkin bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

Stagger Lee shot Billy Lyons, he shot that poor boy bad
Bullet went through Billy's heart
Put a hole in the looking glass
Talkin bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee

Coulda been on a rainy morning,
Coulda been on a rainy night
Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons they had a great fight
Talkin' bout a bad man, that mean old Stagger Lee
