[155]
I was [D]cuttin the rug down at a [D]place called 'The Jug'
with a [A]girl named Linda [A]Lou
When [D]in walked a man with a [D]gun in his hand
he was [E]looking for you know [A]who.
He said &[D]quot;Hey there fellow with[D] the hair coloured yellow,
[G] watcha tryin' to [E]proove?
Cuz' thatsa' my woman there [D]and I'm a man who [D]cares
and this [A]might be all for [D]you" (I said "excuse me!")
I was [D]scared and fearing [D]for my life
[A]shaking like a leaf on a [A]tree
Cuz' he was [D]lean and mean and [D]big and bad, Lord,
[E]pointing that gun at [A]me
I said &[D]quot;wait a minute miste[D]r, I didn't even kiss her,
[G] don't want no trouble with y[E]ou
and I know [D]you don't owe me but I wish [D]you would let me
[A]ask one favour from [D]you:
(CHORUS) Say won't you [D]Gimme 3 steps, gimme [D]3 steps mister,
gimme [A]3 steps toward the [A]door?
[D]Gimme 3 steps, gimme [D]3 steps mister
and you'll [A]never see me no [D]more."
(Solo)
O well the [D]crowd cleared away and I b[D]egan to pray
and the [A]water fell down to the [A]floor
and I'm [D]telling you, son, it [D]ain't no fun,
staring [E]straight down a fourty-[A]four.
Well, he [D]turned and screamed at [D]Linda Lou,
and that's the [G]break I was looking [E]for
and you could [D]hear me screaming a [D]mile away
as I was [A]headed out toward the [D]door.
(CHORUS)
