| Piano Intro |
| WOO! |
| The joint was a jumpin' on the corner (yeah-yeah) |
| Down on a Honky Tonk Street (yeah-yeah) |
| When all of a sudden up drove a Cadillac (yeah-yeah) |
| And out stepped a cat named Pete |
| Diamonds on-a every finger (yeah-yeah) |
| Wore a tailor-made suit |
| He smoked a black cigar (so what?) |
| He wore a Stetson hat (yeah) |
| He wore a pair-a cowboy boots |
| He busted on through the doorway (yeah-yeah) |
| Bad as-a he could be (yeah-yeah) |
| He pulled out his pistol, he turned around |
| He said, 'My name is a Big Boy Pete' |
| The music stopped, there wasn’t a sound |
| A-over in the corner stood-a, Bad Man Brown |
| Brown smiled a grin, he said, 'My friend' |
| ('You take your 3 steps forward and I’m 'onna-a, clue you in') |
| Now Pete said, 'A look it, here buddy' (yeah-yeah) |
| 'Fore I tan your hide' (yeah-yeah) |
| I got a forty-five to keep me alive |
| Seven bullets on my side |
| Brown pulled a knife, he jumped on Pete |
| They fought from the counter right on out to the street |
| They swung from north, they swung from south |
| Brown cut that black cigar right outta Pete’s mouth! |
| Pete hit the ground, he yelled and screamed |
| (Pete took his Stetson hat and beat the scene) |
| Now if you’re ever down on the corner (yeah-yeah) |
| Down on-a Honky Tonk Street (yeah-yeah) |
| Don’t mess with Brown (yeah-yeah) |
| He’ll cut you down |
| Take a message from-a Big Boy Pete |
| Umm-umm, umm umm umm (yeah-yeah) |
| Umm-umm, umm umm umm (yeah-yeah) |
| FADES- |
| Umm, umm, umm |
