Stagolee (Traditional Version 2) Lyrics

Stagolee was a bad man,Ev'rybody knows.Spent one hundred dollarsJust to buy him a suit of dothes.He was a bad manThat mean old StagoleeStagolee shot Billy de LyonsWhat do you think about that?Shot him down in cold bloodBecause he stole his Stetson hat;He was a bad manThat mean old StagoleeBilly de Lyons said, StagoleePlease don't take my lifeI've got two little babesAnd a darling, loving wife;You are a bad manYou mean old Stagolee.What do I care about your two little babes,Your darling loving wife?,You done stole my Stetson hatI'm bound to take your life;He was a bad man,That mean old Stagolee.The judge said, Stagolee,What you doing in here?,You done shot Mr. Billy de Lyons,You going to die in the electric chair;He was a bad manThat mean old Stagolee.Twelve o'clock they killed himHead reached up highLast thing that poor boy said,"My six-shooter never lied." He was a bad man,That mean old Stagolee.
