[Verse 1]
I was Dcutting the rug
Down at a place called The Jug
With a Agirl named Linda Lu
When Din walked a man
With a gun in his hand
And he was Elooking for you know who A
He said, heDy there fellow
With the hair colored yellow
G What you trying to proEve?
'Cause that's Dmy woman there
And I'm a man who cares
And this Amight be all for you D

I was Dscared and fearing for my life
I was Ashaking like a leaf on a tree
'Cause he was Dlean, mean
Big and bad, Lord

But I wish you would let me
AAsk one favor from you D

And that's the Gbreak I was looking foEr
And you could Dhear me screaming a mile away
As I was Aheaded out towards the dooDr

Gimme three steps mister
Gimme Athree steps towards the door?
DGimme three steps
Gimme three steps mister
And you'll Anever seea me no moDre
