#1.
I was peepin through the window one
Saturday night..
saw Charlie Brown holdin Lucille tight.
Over in the corner was Stagger Lee..
and Long Tall Sally was making whoopee.
Mary-Lou and Switchblade Sam..I knocked on
the door and said, here I am.
#2.
Yeah, I slipped through the backdoor and
gave it a slam..and out come Stagger Lee and
old slick Sam.
Out through the window jumped Charlie Brown..
he s a-pickin em up and a-puttin em down.
The funniest sight I ever saw..I guess them cats
thought I was the law.
#3.
Yeah, the girls started screamin and a-carryin on.
Don t be frightened, you ain t alone.
I said to myself, I m gonna have a-fun..
a house full of women and I m the only one..
and now them cats is clean out of sight..
a house full of women and a cold-cold night.
(INTERLUDE:)
#4.
Well, Long Tall Sally was a-sittin on my knee..
wooo, daddy, you beat Stagger Lee.
Mary-Lou was a-playin around..she said, yes, oh,
daddy, you beat Charlie Brown.
Lucille-gal was a-doin agree..she said come here,
baby cause you beat all three.
#5.
Well, this went on all the night..I m a-tellin you
they was a-treatin me right.
Then I heard someone knockin on the door..out
stood Stagger Lee with a .44.
There at the window was a-Charlie Brown..
at the back door stood ol Switchblade Sam.
#6.
Well, I jacked a chair and I knocked out the light..
and everybody indoors was startin to fight.
I jumped out the window and I started to run..
I heard Charlie Brown say, give me that gun.
Ol Stagger Lee said, you cut my wife..
Switchblade Sam said, I dropped my knife.
OUTRO:
Well, listen here, fellow, let me give you some advice..
if you re out jukin on a Saturday night.
You better look out for a-Charlie Brown..
Stagger Lee and ol Switchblade Sam.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
