Big Boy Pete

Lyrics

[Intro] Woo! [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] Diamonds on 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 of cowboy boots [Verse 3] He busted on through the doorway (Yeah-yeah) Bad as he could be (Yeah-yeah) Pulled out his pistol, he turned around He said, "My name is a Big Boy Pete" [Bridge 1] 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 three steps forward And I'm 'onna, do you in") [Verse 4] Now, Pete said, "A-look it here, buddy (Yeah-yeah) 'Fore I tan your hide" (Yeah-yeah) I got a .45 to keep me alive Seven bullets on my side [Bridge 2] 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 [Verse 5] 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 [Outro] Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm (Yeah-yeah) Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm (Yeah) Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm-umm-umm-umm Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm (Yeah-yeah) Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm (Yeah-yeah) Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm, umm-umm-umm-umm (Yeah) Umm, umm-umm-umm-umm
