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