Hugh Laurie - Stagger Lee lyrics

Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons
Were gambling in the dark
Stagger Lee said to Billy:
'Billy Lyons, let's take a walk'

Stagger Lee won Billy Lyons' money
And he took his coat and hat
Billy Lyons said to Stagger Lee:
'Lord, why d'you gotta do me like that'

Billy Lyons said to Stagger Lee:
'Please, don't you take my life
I've got two little children
And a poor little homeless wife'
Well Stagger Lee shot Billy Lyons
And he fell down to his knees
Say 'Lord have mercy
Lord, have mercy if you please, '

And Stagger Lee, he ran to the corner
And he looked up and down
Said 'I'd rather see you Billy
Billy Lyons six feet under the ground'

Tinana tinana tinanananana tinananana
Tinananana

Well the people, they started weeping
And some of them began to moan
Everybody worry
Poor little Billy Lyons was gone

When I die, i want the Copper Bottom Band
To play the blues when they lay me down
I want 10000 women at my burying ground

Tinana tinanana tinanananana tinanana
Tinananananana tinana oh Tinana
Oh Tinanananana tinanana tinana tinanana
Tinanaaaaa
