I was peepin' through the window one 

Saturday night..

saw Charlie Brown holdin' Lucille tight.
D
Over in the corner was Stagger Lee..
    A
and Long Tall Sally was making whoopee.
E                               A
Mary-Lou and Switchblade Sam..I knocked on 

the door and said, here I am.

#2.
A
Yeah, I slipped through the backdoor and 

gave it a slam..and out come Stagger Lee and 

old slick Sam.
D
Out through the window jumped Charlie Brown..
       A
he's a-pickin' 'em up and a-puttin' 'em down.
    E                            A
The funniest sight I ever saw..I guess them cats 

thought I was the law.

#3.
A
Yeah, the girls started screamin' and a-carryin' on.

Don't be frightened, you ain't alone.
  D
I said to myself, I'm gonna have a-fun..
  A
a house full of women and I'm the only one..
    E
and now them cats is clean out of sight..
  A
a house full of women and a cold-cold night.

Mary-Lou was a-playin' around..she said, yes, oh,

E                                       A
Lucille-gal was a-doin' agree..she said come here, 

baby 'cause you beat all three.

Well, this went on all the night..I'm a-tellin' you 

they was a-treatin' me right.
       D                                   A
Then I heard someone knockin' on the door..out 

stood Stagger Lee with a .44.
E
There at the window was a-Charlie Brown..
       A
at the back door stood ol' Switchblade Sam.

#6.
A
Well, I jacked a chair and I knocked out the light..

and everybody indoors was startin' to fight.
  D
I jumped out the window and I started to run..
  A
I heard Charlie Brown say, give me that gun.
E
Ol' Stagger Lee said, you cut my wife..
A
Switchblade Sam said, I dropped my knife.
