[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
