Stagolee

Police officer, how can it be?
You can arrest everybody but cruel Stagolee
That bad man, cruel Stagolee

Billy Lyons told Stagolee
"Please don't take my life
I got two baby children and a darling
Loving wife" that bad man, cruel Stagolee

"Would I care about your
Two babes and darling, loving wife?
You done stole my Stetson hat
I'm bound to take your life"
That bad man, cruel Stagolee
Stagolee stood on the gallows
Head way up high
Twelve o'clock, they killed him
We were all glad to see him die
That bad man, cruel Stagolee
