Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Stagger Lee Lyrics
It was back in '32 when times were hard
He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger Lee
He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a '28 Ford, had payments on that
His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, "Never ever come back no more"
Stagger Lee
So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood
Stagger Lee
He said "Mr Motherfucker, you know who I am"
The barkeeper said, "No, and I don't give a good goddamn"
To Stagger Lee
He said, "Well bartender, it's plain to see
Mr. Stagger Lee
Barkeep said, "Yeah, I've heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day"
Mr Stagger Lee
Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
'Cause Stag put four holes in his motherfucking head
Just then in came a broad called Nellie Brown
Was known to make more money than any bitch in town
She struts across the bar, hitching up her skirt
Over to Stagger Lee, she starts to flirt
With Stagger Lee
She saw the barkeep, said, "O God, he can't be dead!"
Stag said, "Well, just count the holes in the motherfucker's head"
She said, "You ain't look like you scored in quite a time.
Why not come to my pad? It won't cost you a dime"
Mr. Stagger Lee
"But there's something I have to say before you begin
You'll have to be gone before my man Billy Dilly comes in,
Mr. Stagger Lee"
"I'll stay here till Billy comes in, till time comes to pass
And furthermore I'll fuck Billy in his motherfucking ass"
Said Stagger Lee
"I'm a bad motherfucker, don't you know
And I'll crawl over fifty good pussies just to get one fat boy's asshole"
Said Stagger Lee
Just then Billy Dilly rolls in and he says, "You must be
That bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Stagger Lee
"Yeah, I'm Stagger Lee and you better get down on your knees
And suck my dick, because If you don't you're gonna be dead"
Said Stagger Lee
Billy dropped down and slobbered on his head
And Stag filled him full of lead
Oh yeah.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Stagger Lee Comments
Shit that you mute in front of your grandma.
Lee was Bruce lee great Grand Vater ??
what=s uuuuup000!!!
Why am I so obsessed with this song?
Doc Watson is rolling over in his grave.
A fun, family sing-along 😋
Pure theatre
A few notes from watching this video.
- Nick Cave reminds me a TON of Mick Jagger in this, as some people have mentioned.
- Blixa looks SEXY AS FUCK when he doesn't shave.
- The way Nick and Blixa dance is pure sex and I can't watch this with people around anymore.
That is all. ?
"It did occur to me one night, as I performed Stagger Lee in full priapic flight, that Stagger Lee does not shoot Billy Dilly with an actual gun at all, but that his being “filled full of lead. Bang! Bang! Bang!” was simply a metaphor for the force of Stag’s ejaculation, and Blixa’s terrifying and inhuman screeching at the end orgasmic in nature. This made me wonder, chillingly at the time, what sleeping with Blixa must be like – something I am sadly unable to elaborate on." - Nick Cave
I was banned from FB for 24 hours today...I have absolutely NO idea why. But I'm going to post a bunch of videos regarding sex, violence, and both over the next week to see what FB flags and what they don't...this will be my 1st post tomorrow 😊
Cave seems like a mix between Jagger, Bowie and Danzig
......oh yeah......
An amazing artist. Breathtaking
I love you
Nur Klasse. Wahnsinn. Special.
Gael Faye resurrection of Stagger also worthwhile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skgHWSMlE0o
I want this song played at my funeral
A esto le llaman música , asco prefiero el reguetón
this could keep going for another 30 minutes
Peaky blinders ?
very close to it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwwvotWvY4w
If David Lynch saw this he would remake Blue Velvet just to choreograph the scene to it.
Yung stagger dick that's my handle yeah
more gansta than any gangsta rap
Good old Nick and Seeds. Still the Baddest song around.
It. Was. Bbamg
I love his face at 2:30 "Oh god he can't be dead" :D
I like this song because of its positive message
Be yourself lee.
Thanks 🙏 that’s the best comment I’ve seen on any song in a long long time, or ever
Yeah, I guess I do too now.
And The Ass Saw The Angel is my favorite book ever.
Well do it get better?
FUCKING EPIC !!!
In a better world, this song would be a staple at karaoke bars.
I'd have a go lol ....
When you have the maracas, commit to them!
Hell of a fucking story teller our Nick is!
BY ORDER OF THE PEAKY BLINDERS
is every bloody song Nick Cave does a poetic and musical master piece?
They should be thrown in jail for even speaking on the black stagger lee legacy. It sucks.
I like this song entirely too much.
This is some weird shit for sure!!!
Who else is here for Halloween 2019 Halloween 👻
I dedicate this song to Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz. May the baddest motherfucker win.
I'm so sick for this ssssssss $$$$$$ exquisite .....
this guy wishes he was Mick Jagger.
Looks like Nellie Brown really wanted the Stagger D...
The night was clear and the moon was yellow and the leaves came tumbling down...
My heterosexuality feels assaulted watching this...
It's a story told. That's it.
A touch of Mick Jagger! :-)
Oh stagger Lee.....
"Yeah, I've heard your name down the way and I kick motherf***ing asses like you every day."
Mr Stagger Lee
guess I'm the first comment
Nick being Mick Jagger and Blixa being a Yoko Ono. Cool. XD
Aesthetic af thin Nick Cave throwing in some moves like jagger in a pink shirt.
And my mum asks me when will she see some grandchildren. Unless I find a man like him, I ain't getting married XD
good to see the BBC bringing you here from the blinders now check out the ghost of millhaven you love it
Listening for the first time after watching Peaky blinders 😇
Australia's Mick Jagger.
Peaky Blinders brought me here.
Stagger who??
Jest wowwwwwww,,,,,,,,,
I thought vevo always censored lyrics ..Thank fuck
I have this song in my top 50 playlist, that I always play. I've never even thought to look for it on here, what a great video.
“Uh yeah”
this has to be one of the greatest performances ever recorded
It was back in '32 when times were hard
He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger Lee
He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a '28 Ford, had payments on that
Stagger Lee
His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, "Never ever come back no more"
Stagger Lee
So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood
Stagger Lee
He said "Mr Motherfucker, you know who I am"
The barkeeper said, "No, and I don't give a good goddamn"
To Stagger Lee
He said, "Well bartender, it's plain to see
I'm that bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Mr. Stagger Lee
Barkeep said, "Yeah, I've heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day"
Mr Stagger Lee
Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
'Cause Stag put four holes in his motherfucking head
Just then in came a broad called Nellie Brown
Was known to make more money than any bitch in town
She struts across the bar, hitching up her skirt
Over to Stagger Lee, she starts to flirt
With Stagger Lee

And suck my dick, because If you don't you're gonna be dead"
Said Stagger Lee
Billy dropped down and slobbered on his head
And Stag filled him full of lead
Oh yeah.
Pure Nick-Cavian genius!
