[Verse 1]

            D                                    D
I was cuttin’ the rug down at a place called 'The Jug'
             A                        A
with a girl named Linda Lou
          D                                    D
When in walked a man with a gun in his hand
             E                                  A
he was looking for you know who.
                D                                    D
He said "Hey there fellow with the hair coloured yellow,
G                          E
watcha tryin' to prove?
                    D                                        D
Cuz thatsa my woman there and I'm a man who cares
                 A                     D
and this might be all for you" (I said "excuse me!")

[Verse 2]

           D                                     D
I was scared and fearing for my life
A                                    A
shaking like a leaf on a tree
                    D                            D
Cuz he was lean and mean and big and bad, Lord,
E                                A
pointing that gun at me
             D                                 D
I said "wait a minute mister, I didn't even kiss her,
G                                          E
don't want no trouble with you
            D                                          D
and I know you don't owe me but I wish you would let me
A                             D
ask one favor from you:

[Chorus]

                           D                                    D
Say won't you gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister,
A                                              A
gimme three steps toward the door?
D                                          D
Gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister
                    A                       D
and you'll never see me no more."

[Solo]

[Verse 3]

                        D                                   D
Oh, well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray
               A                        A
and the water fell on the floor
                  D                        D
and I'm telling you, son, it ain't no fun,
                E                              A
staring straight down a fourty-four.
              D                                              D
Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou,
                         G                            E
and that's the break I was looking for
                        D                                D
and you could hear me screaming a mile away
                A                                 D
as I was headed out toward the door.

[Chorus]

                       D                                        D
Say won't you gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister,
              A                                 A
gimme three steps toward the door?
D                                         D
Gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister
                  A                         D
and you'll never see me no more. (Fo' sho')
