Gimmie Three Steps

Gimmie Three Steps - The Hit Co.

I was cuttin a rug

Down at a place called the chug,

With a girl named linda lou.

When in walked a man

With a gun in his hand.

And he was lookin for you know who.

He said hey there fellow

With the hair color yellow,

Whatch ya tryin to proove,

Cause thats my woman there

And i'm a man who cares,

So this might be on for you.

I said excuse me

I was scared and fearin for my life

I was shaking like a leaf on a tree,

Cause he was lean mean

Big and bad

Lord pointin that gun at me

Oh wait a minnute mister

I didnt 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.

Oh won't you gimmie three steps

Gimmie three steps mister,

Gimmie three steps towards the door,

Gimmie three steps

Gimmie three steps mister

And youll never see me no more.

For sure

Well the clock went away

And i began to pray

And the water fell on the floor

And i'm tellin ya son

Well it ain't no fun

Stariin straight down a 44

Well in came screamin linda lou

And thats the break i was lookin for

And you could hear me screamin a mile away

As i was headed out towards the door

Won't you gimmie three steps

Gimmie three steps mister

Gimmie three steps towards the door

Gimmie three steps

Gimmie three steps mister

And youll never see me no more

Show me the back door!
