Stagolee (Traditional Version 2) — текст песни (Nick Cave and The Bad Seed)

Stagolee was a bad man,
Ev`rybody knows.
Spent one hundred dollars
Just to buy him a suit of dothes.

He was a bad man
That mean old Stagolee


Stagolee shot Billy de Lyons
What do you think about that?
Shot him down in cold blood
Because he stole his Stetson hat;


He was a bad man
That mean old Stagolee


Billy de Lyons said, Stagolee
Please don`t take my life
I`ve got two little babes
And a darling, loving wife;


You are a bad man
You mean old Stagolee.


What do I care about your two little babes,
Your darling loving wife?,
You done stole my Stetson hat
I`m bound to take your life;


He was a bad man,
That mean old Stagolee.


The judge said, Stagolee,
What you doing in here?,
You done shot Mr. Billy de Lyons,
You going to die in the electric chair;


He was a bad man
That mean old Stagolee.


Twelve o`clock they killed him
Head reached up high
Last thing that poor boy said,
My six-shooter never lied.

He was a bad man,
That mean old Stagolee.
