Oh, Staggly, now
Staggly, meanest boy around
When Staggly starts stealin' boys,
you'd better lay your money down
It's way down in New Orleans,
they've got the Lion's Club
Every step you step,
you're steppin' in Billy the
Li on's blood
Now Staggly, he's a bad man,
everybody knows
He took two hundred dollars,
bought a brand new set of clothes
He shot Billy the Lion,
he shot that boy so bad
He shot him down cause Billy stole
his brand new Stetson hat
Now Staggerly, whoa, Staggerly,
meanest boy around
When Staggerly starts stealing boys,
you better lay your money down
It's way down in New Orleans,
they've got the Lion's Club
And every step you step,
you're steppin' in
Billy the Lion's blood
Now Billy says to Staggerly,
now please don't take my life
I've got two little children,
got a very sickly wife
Well, I don't care about your kids
or about your lovin' wife
You done stole my Stetson hat,
now I'm gonna take your life
Oh, Staggerly, now
Staggerly, meanest boy around
When Staggerly starts stealin' boys,
you'd better lay your money down
And it's way down in New Orleans,
they've got the lion's club
And every step you step,
you're steppin' in Billy's li on's blood
Well, the judge, he says, staggly
Now, what you doin' here?
You shot Billy the Lion
You're gonna die in that Lairton chair
Now they fried him at high noon,
he went straight down to hell
Where Staggerly says,
look out boys,
I'm gonna run this place myself
Oh, Staggerly, now
Staggerly, meanest boy around
When Staggerly starts stealing boys,
you better lay your money down
It's way down in New Orleans,
they've got the Lions Club
And every step you step, you
step and say
Every step you step, you step and cause
You stabbed me, stabbed me, stabbed me
in Billy the Li on's blood
