[Verse 1]
Police [D]officer,
how can it be?
You can 'rest [G]everybody
but cruel Stack O' [D]Lee
That [A]bad man, oh,
cruel [D]Stack O' [G]Lee[D][A][D]
Billy de Lyon told Stack O' Lee,
"Please don't take my life
[G]I got two little babies,
and a darlin' lovin' wife"
[D]That bad[A] man, oh,
cruel [D]Stack O' [G]Lee[D][A][D]
"What I care about you little babies,
your darlin' lovin' wife?
You done stole [G]my Stetson1 hat, I'm
bound to take your [D]life"

With the forty- four
[G]When I spied Billy de Lyon, he was
lyin' down on the floor
[D]That bad[A] man, oh cruel Sta[D]ck O'
[G]Lee
[D][A][D]
"Gentleman's of the jury,
what do you think of that?
[G]Stack O' Lee killed Billy de Lyon
about a five- dollar Stetson [D]hat"
That [A]bad man, oh,
cruel [D]Stack O' [G]Lee[D][A][D]
And all they gathered, hands way up high
At twelve o'clock [G]they killed him,
they's all glad to see him [D]die
That [A]bad man,
[D]oh, cruel Stack O' Lee
