GimmeThreeSteps

I was cutting the rug

Down at a place called the jug

With a girl named linda lu

When in walked a man

With a gun in his hand

And he was looking for you know who

He said hey there fellow

With the hair colored yellow

Watcha tryin to prove

Cause that's my woman there

And I'm a man who cares

And this might be all for you

I was scared and fearing for my life

I was shakin like a leaf on a tree

Cause he was lean mean

Big and bad lord

Pointin that gun at me

I said wait a minute mister

I didn't even kiss her

Don't want no trouble with you

And I know you don't owe me

But I wish youd let me

Ask one favor from you

Won't you give me three steps

Gimme three steps mister

Gimme three steps towards the door

Gimme three steps

Gimme three steps mister

And you'll never see me no more

Well the crowd cleared away

And I began to pray

As the water fell on the floor

And I'm telling you son

Well it ain't no fun

Staring straight down a forty four

Well he turned and screamed at linda lu

And that's the break I was looking for

And you could hear me screaming a mile away

As I was headed out towards the door
