GIMMIE' THREE STEPS

Lynard Skynard

I was cuttin' the rug
Down at a place called 'The Jug'
With a girl named Linda Lou.

When in walked a man
With a gun in his hand
He was looking for you know who.

He said "Hey there fellow
With the hair colored yellow,
Watcha tryin' to proove?

Cuz' thatsa' my woman there
And I'm a man who cares
And this might be all for you"

(I said "excuse me!")

I was scared and fearing
For my life
shaking like a leaf on a tree

Cuz' he was lean and mean
And big and bad, Lord,
Pointing that gun at me

I said "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:

"Say won't you Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister,
Gimme three steps toward the door?

Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister
And you'll never see me no more."

Oh well the crowd cleared away
And I began to pray
And the water fell down to the floor

And I'm telling you, son,
It ain't no fun,
Staring straight down a fourtyfour.

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.

"Say won't you Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister,
Gimme three steps toward the door?

Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister
And you'll never see me no more."

"Say won't you Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister,
Gimme three steps toward the door?

Gimme three steps,
Gimme three steps mister
And you'll never see me no more."
