Testo di ' Stagger Lee ' di The Birthday Party

It was back in 32 when times were hard
He had a colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger lee

He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a 28 ford, had payments on that
Stagger lee

His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, never ever come back no more
Stagger lee

So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called the bucket of blood
Stagger lee

He said mr motherfucker, you know who I am
The barkeeper said, no, and I dont give a good goddamn
To stagger lee

He said, well bartender, its plain to see
Im that bad motherfucker called stagger lee
Mr. stagger lee

Barkeep said, yeah, Ive heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day
Mr stagger lee

Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
cause stag put four holes in his motherfucking head

Just then in came a broad called nellie brown
Was known to make more money than any bitch in town

She struts across the bar, hitching up her skirt
Over to stagger lee, she starts to flirt
With stagger lee

She saw the barkeep, said, o god, he cant be dead!
Stag said, well, just count the holes in the motherfuckers head

She said, you aint look like you scored in quite a time.
Why not come to my pad? it wont cost you a dime
Mr. stagger lee

But theres something I have to say before you begin
Youll have to be gone before my man billy dilly comes in,
Mr. stagger lee

Ill stay here till billy comes in, till time comes to pass
And furthermore Ill fuck billy in his motherfucking ass
Said stagger lee

Im a bad motherfucker, dont you know
And Ill crawl over fifty good pussies just to get one fat boys asshole
Said stagger lee

Just then billy dilly rolls in and he says, you must be
That bad motherfucker called stagger lee
Stagger lee

Yeah, Im stagger lee and you better get down on your knees
And suck my dick, because if you dont youre gonna be dead
Said stagger lee

Billy dropped down and slobbered on his head
And stag filled him full of lead
Oh yeah.
