Biografia:
Professor Longhair (December 19, 1918 - January 30, 1980) (born Henry Roeland Byrd, also known as Roy "Bald Head" Byrd and as Fess) was a New Orleans, Louisiana blues singer and pianist. Professor Longhair is noteworthy for having been active in two distinct periods, both in the heyday of early rhythm and blues, and in the resurgence of interest in traditional jazz after the founding of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.

Someone requested some older blues tab. I don't have the tab for this
one but here's the basic chord progression and the lyrics. The actual
chord progression and beat is directly proportionate to the quantity
of attitude adjusters consumed. Have fun. If any of you have the tab
for this I'd like to see it.
Stagolee
Professor Longhair's version
[E]It was early early one mornin'
Boys I [A]heard that fool dog bark
He was [E]barkin' at the two men
Who were [B7]gamblin in the [E]dark
[B7]
[E]It was Stagolee & Billy Lion
Boys, they were [A]gamblin that early day
Yeah, they [E]tossed up that seven
Billy [B7]Lion told him the easy [E]way
[B7]
Stagolee lost all his money
Lost his new cadilac
He said I believe your cheatin'
Don't be here when I get back
Stagolee went home
& he knocked up on his woman's door
He said wake up little Bertha baby
& hand me my forty-four
You know Bertha rose out of bed screamin
She was lookin him dead smack in the eye
She said come on in honey
I can see some poor man's gonna die
Then Stagolee told Bertha
That he had lost his new cadilic
But he believed Billy was cheatin
& she knew he wouldn't go for that
Stagolee went back on the corner
& stood up in the barroom door
& he said don't nobody move
Cuz I got me my forty-four
Stagolee cried Billy
& he shot the poor boy so fast
The bullet went through Billy
& it broke the bartenders glass
Then Billy Lion started screamin
I heard him say Stagolee don't take my life
You know I got two little children
& a poor little old sickly wife
Stagolee told Billy
Yeah I know you got a cute little boy & girl
If you want to see your family billy
You'll have to meet 'em in another world
