Billy Lyons And Stackolee |
| I remember one September on one Friday night |
| Stack O’Lee and Billy Lyons had a great fight |
| Cryin', when you lose your money, learn to lose |
| Billy Lyons shot six bits, Stack O’Lee bet he’d pass |
| Stack O’Lee out with his forty-five, said you done shot your last |
| When you lose your money, learn to lose |
| Lord, a woman come a-running, fell down on her knees |
| Cryin', Oh Mr. Stack O’Lee, don’t shoot my brother please |
| When you lose your money… |
| I ain’t talking ‘bout some gambler, ought to see Richard Lee |
| Shot one thousand dollars and come out on a three |
| Cryin', when you lose your money, learn to lose |
| Lord, the judge told the sheriff, we want him dead or ‘live |
| How in the world can we bring him in when he’s totin' a forty-five |
| When you lose your money, learn to lose |
| Lord, the woman told the judge, my husband’s name Jack Shep |
| Wanna arrest po' Stack O’Lee, better go somewhere else |
| When you lose your money, learn to lose. |
