Вступление
[Verse 1]
E
Up Chestnut Hill, down on Murfreesboro Pines
A E
He set up on the low-rise, slinging nickels and dimes
B7 E
He a bad man, old Stagolee
E
It was Stagolee shot Jimmy, oh, little Jimmy Brown
A E
At the Roadway Motel, gunned that boy down
B7 E
He a bad man, old Stagolee
[Verse 2]
E
You see, Jimmy loved a girl, a little girl named Valentine
A E
They grew up on the hill, there in the low-rise
B7 E
Next door to old Stagolee
E
But Jimmy grew up in the bottoms, boy, and everybody knows
A E
That folks from the bottoms and the hill don't get along
B7 E
No one much liked Stagolee
[Verse 3]
E
So the folks down in the bottoms said, "Boy, don't get yourself killed
A E
Ain't there plenty girls down here? Why chase one up the hill?
B7 E
You watch out for old Stagolee."
E
But Jimmy said, "Come on, don't give me none of that shit
A E
You know little Jimmy Brown ain't afraid of no son of a bitch
B7 E
Oh, not even Stagolee."
[Verse 4]
E
One night, Jimmy shootin' dice, down at the Roadways
A E
Outside Room 22, down the breezeway
B7 E
And up walked old Stagolee
E
But Jimmy shootin' fire, throwin' seven in the air
A E
Eleven, eleven, oh seven, come again
B7 E
So he never saw old Stagolee
[Verse 5]
E
I wasn't there, but I did hear the shots
A E
And by the time I arrived, the place was crawling with cops
B7 E
Though I did see old Stagolee
E
Out in back of the motel, all alone in his car
A E
Went around the turnpike, sneaked past the graveyard
B7 E
Aw, that goddamn Stagolee
E
So I stayed out of sight till he rolled away
A E
I don't need nobody thinkin' that I saw a thing
B7 E
Aw, especially not Stagolee
[Verse 6]
E
One shot fired, and one man dead
A E
Was no fightin', not one word said
B7 E
Yeah, he's a bad man, Stagolee
E
So this story done been told
Time and time again
A E
Same old means, same old end
B7 E
Same old Stagolee
