Gimme Three Steps Lyrics

I was cuttin' the rug Down at a place called the Jug With a girl named Linda Lu When in walked a man With a gun in his hand Lookin' for you know who
He said, "Hey there fellow With the hair colored yellow What you tryin' to prove? 'Cause that's my woman there And I'm a man who cares And this might be all for you
I was scared and fearin' for my life Shakin' like a leaf on a tree 'Cause he was lean and mean And big and bad, Lord Pointin' that gun at me
Oh, "Wait a minute, Mister I didn't even kiss her Don't want no trouble with you And I know you don't owe me But I wish you'd let me Ask one favor from you"
I said, "Won't you give me three steps Gimme three steps Mister Gimme three steps towards the door? Gimme three steps Gimme three steps Mister You'll never see me no more"
Well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray As the water fell on the floor And I'm tellin' you son, well it ain't no fun Starin' straight down a forty-four
Well he turned and screamed at Linda Lu So break I was lookin' for And you could hear me screamin' a mile away As I was headed out towards the door
I said, "Won't you give me three steps Gimme three steps Mister Gimme three steps towards the door? Gimme three steps Gimme three steps Mister You'll never see me no more"
