I was a-cutting the rug down at a place called The Jug
With a girl named Linda Lou
When in walked a man with a gun in his hand
And he was looking for you know who
He said Hey therefellow with the hair colored yellow
What you tryin to prove
Cause that s a-my woman there and I m a man who cares
And this might be all for you
I said"Excuse me"

I was scared and fearing for my life
I was shaking like a leaf on a tree
Cause he was lean and mean and big and badLord
Pointin that gun at me
I said Wait a minutemisterI didn t even kiss her
Don t want no trouble with you
And I know you don t owe me but I wish you would let me
Ask one favor from you

(Chorus)
Saywon t you
Gimme three stepsgimme three stepsmister
Gimme three steps toward the door
Gimme three stepsgimme three stepsmister
And you ll never see me no more

Well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray
And the water fell on the floor
And I m telling yousonwell it ain t no fun
Staring straight down a forty-four
Wellhe turned and screamed at Linda Lou
And that s the break I was looking for
And you could hear me screaming a mile away
As I was headed out toward the door

(Chorus)
