Stagolee (Traditional Version 1) Lyrics

by Nick Cave The Bad Seed

Bad man Stagalee when he bad,

He bad wid a gun

Stagalee, Stagalee --- you must-a been a sinner

Ev'ry- Christmas eve they give Stagalee a dinner

Bad man Stagalee, when he bad

He bad wid a gun.





Don't you remember you remember

One dark stormy night

Stagalee and Bill O. Lion

Dey had dat noble fight.





Bill O. Lion tole Stagalee

Please don't take my life

I got three little children

And a dear lil' lovin'wife





Stagalee told Billy O. Lion

I don't care for your three lil' children

Or even your lovin' wife

You stole mah Stetson hat

And I'm goin to take yo'life





Stagalee pulled out his forty-four

It went boom boom boom

It wasn't long' fore Bill O. Lion

WVere layin'on de flo'





Stagalee's woman she went to her boss

She run her han'in her stocking feet

And pulled out a hundred spot.
