[B] [A] [G]
[Bm] [A] [G]
[D]
[A] [D]
For the grabs [G] and fans and [B] tricks
To [A] get your kicks at six or [B] six
To fix your [Am] marble lips and [B] gaze
I [A] don't [G] stand a stone [Bm] to kick
Give a [A] little flick, give [G] yourself a little [A] cuddle
There's no place here for the men of Skid Wild
[Bm] Got the feel, but I shouldn't
She [G] is [A] last year's model
It's all an attraction when [G] she looks [A] like [G] Elsa
[F#m] I don't want to [G] go to jail
Oh [E] [D] no, [G] it does [D] not mean that
Give a little [Em] ice cream [A] and move [B] it
I don't want [G] to check [Bm] your [G] pulse
I don't want nobody [D] [B] else
I don't want [E] to go to jail, sir
[D]
[Em]
[Am] [D] Everybody's [B] got new orders
[A] Being nice, come kiss the [B] waters
[G] Now the teacher is [B] away
[A] All the kids begin to [Bm] play
They're tasting Memphis in black
Won't shake your [A] very gently by the throat
[G] One [A] sniff Gus, one sniff Alfie
[F#m] I don't want to go to jail, [Dm] sir
Oh no, it does not mean that
Give a little [G] ice cream [D] and move it
I don't want [G] to check [Dm] your [G] pulse
[Dm] I don't want [G]
[Dm] nobody [Em] else
I don't [D] want [E] to go to [B] jail, [A] sir
[D]
[A] [G] Photographs of fancy [C#] treats
To [A] get to gigs at 60
[Bm] And think of all the women who meet
I [A] thought that the ladies [G] had closed [A] their [B] gates
She gave a [A] little perk, gave [G] herself [A] a little [Bm] cuddle
That there's no place here for a little kid wild
Got the feel, [A] but I shouldn't
[G] She is last year's model
It's all [A] an attraction [G] when she looks like Elsa
[F#m] I don't want to [G] go to jail, sir
Oh no, it does not [F#m] mean [G] that
Give a little ice cream and move it
I don't want to check your [F#m] pulse
