                             D
                    I was cutting the rug down at a place called The Jug
                                A
                    With a girl named Linda Lou
                              D
                    When in walked a man with a gun in his hand
                                        E                 E7             A
                    And he was looking for you know who

                                    D                                          
                    He said, "Hey there fellow, with the hair colored yellow
                G            (G)(F#)(F)(E)       E
                    Watcha tryin' to prove?
                                         D
                    Cause that's my woman there and I'm a man who cares
                                   A                        D
                    And this might be all for you." - I said, "Excuse me"
                                                                                                               D  A  D  A  D

                    I was scared and fearing for my life
                    I was shakin' like a leaf on a tree
                    Cause he was lean, mean and big and bad, Lord,
                    A-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 would let me
                    Ask one favor from you"

                                                          D
                                  Oh, won't you gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
                                               A
                                  Gimme three steps towards the door?
                                  D
                                  Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
                                                    A                         D
                                  And you'll never see me no more - for sure
                                                *Interlude*    D  A  D  (E)(F#)(G#)(B)(C#)(E)(C#)(A) A

                    Well, the crowd cleared away and I began to pray
                    As the water fell on the floor
                    And I'm telling you son - well, it ain't no fun
                    Staring straight down a forty-four

                    Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou
                    And that's the break I was looking for
                    And you could hear me screaming a mile away
                    As I was headed out toward the door

                                  Oh, won't you gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
                                  Gimme three steps towards the door?
                                  Gimme three steps, gimme three steps, mister
                                  And you'll never see me no more - show me the back door...
