Stagger Lee

Stagger Lee - Wilson Pickett (威尔森·皮凯特)

The night was clear and the moon was yellow

And the leaves came tumbling down

I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark

He was barkin' at the two men who were gamblin' in the dark

It was Stagger Lee and Billy two men who gambled late

Stagger Lee threw seven Billy swore that he threw eight

Stagger Lee told Billy \"I can't let you go with that\"

\"You have won all my money and my brand new stetson hat\"

Stagger Lee started off goin' down that railroad track

He said \"I can't get you Billy but don't be here when I come back\"

Stagger Lee went home and he got his forty-four

Said \"I'm goin' to the barroom just to pay that debt I owe\"

Stagger Lee went to the barroom and he stood across the barroom door

He said \"Nobody move\" and he pulled his forty-four

Stagger Lee shot Billy oh he shot that poor boy so bad

Till the bullet came through Billy and it broke the bartender's glass
