Big Boy Pete

Lyrics

[Intro] Wow [Verse 1] The joint was a jumpin' on the corner Down on a honky tonk street When all of a sudden up drove a Cadillac Out stepped a cat named Pete [Verse 2] Diamonds on a every finger He wore a tailor-made suit He smoked a black cigar, he wore a Stetson hat He wore a pair of cowboy boots [Verse 3] He busted on through the doorway Just as bad as he can be He pulled out his pistol and turned around He said, "My name is a Big Boy Pete" [Verse 4] The music stopped, there wasn't a sound Over in a corner stood Bad Man Brown Brown smiled and grinned, he said, "My friend Come three steps farther, and I'll do you in" [Verse 5] Now, Pete, said, "A look a here, buddy Before I tan your hide I got a .45 to keep me alive And seven bullets on my side" [Verse 6] Brown pulled a knife, he jumped on Pete They fought from the counter, right out to the street They swung from north, they swung from south Brown cut that black cigar right outta Pete's mouth [Verse 7] Brown slipped around behind poor Pete Cut him from his head right on down to his feet Pete hit the ground, he yelled and screamed Pete took his Stetson hat and flee the scene [Verse 8] Now, if you're ever down on the corner Down on a honky tonk street Don't mess with Brown, he'll cut you down Take a lesson from Big Boy Pete [Outro] Wow
