[Opening]
[D]I was cutting the rug, down at place called The Jug
With a [A]girl named Linda Lou
When [D]in walked a man with a gun in his hand
[E7]Looking for you know [A]who
[section 2]
He said, [D]”Hey there, fellow with the hair colored yellow
[G]Whatcha tryin’ to [E7]prove?
‘Cause [D]that’s my woman there and I’m a man who cares
And this [A]might be all for [D]you”
I said, “Excuse me” [D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
[section 3]
[D]I was scared and fearing for my life
I was shaking like a [A]leaf on a tree
‘Cause [D]he was lean, mean, big and bad, Lord
[E7]Pointin’ that gun on [A]me
[section 4]
“Oh, [D]wait a minute, mister I didn’t even kiss her
[G]Don’t want no trouble with [E7]you
And I know you don’t [D]owe me but I wish you’d let me
[A]Ask one favor from [D]you”
[section 5]
“[D]Just gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
Gimme [A]three steps toward the [D]door?
[D]Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
And you’ll [A]never see me no [D]more”
For, sure
[section 6]
Well the [D]crowd cleared away, and I be[D]gan to pray
And the [A]water fell on the floor
And I’m [D]telling you, son, well, it ain’t no fun
Staring [E7]straight down a forty [A]four
[section 7]
Well, he [D]turned and screamed at Linda Lou
and [G]that’s the break I was looking [E7]for
Well, you could [D]hear me screaming a mile away
I was [A]headed out toward the [D]door
[Closing]
“[D]Oh, won’t you gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
Gimme [A]three steps toward the [D]door?
[D]Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
And you’ll [A]never see me no [D]more”
Show me the back door [A] [D]
