[Verse 1]
[Am]Hawlin Alley one dark

All about that John B. Stetson [Am]Hat.

[Verse 2]
Stack- A- Lee walked to the bar- [Am]room
and he called for a glass of beer
[F]Turned around to Billy Lyons,
said "What- a you doin' [G]here?"
"Waitin' for a train to bring my wo
[Am]man home."

[Verse 3]
"Stack- A- Lee, oh Stack- [Am]A- Lee
please don't take [C]my life
[Am]I've got [F]three little children and a weepin',
lov[G]ing wife
You're a bad man,
bad man Stack[Am]- A- Lee."

[Verse 4]
"God bless your children [Am]and I'll
take care of your wife
You stole [F]my John B.,
now I'm bound to take [G]your life"

bad man Stack[Am]- A- Lee.

[Verse 7]
Six big horses [Am]and a rubber-

[Am]son [C]Hat.[Am]

[Verse 8]
[C]Hawlin Alley,

High [Am]police walked [C]on [Am]to Stack- A- Lee,
he was lying fast [C]asleep

jumped forty [G]feet
He's a bad man,
gonna land him right back in jail.
Well [C]they[Am]

[Verse 10]
