Start Jamming...
Hello.
Well the times getting hard for you little girl.
[G] I'm a homie and a straw man [D] all over God's world.
[C] You don't remember when you got your last meal.
[G] And you forgot just [D] how a woman feels.
[Bb] You didn't know what rock and roll was [Eb] until you met a drummer on the right-hand bus.
[Bb] Out in the middle of town [Eb] before he got his hands across your state.
[C]
Well in the middle of the night on the open road [G] and the heater don't work [D] and it's
hot outside and cold.
[C] You're getting tired baby looking at the beat.
[G] The music of the [D] street drive you off your [Bb] feet.
You didn't know how
[Eb] until you caught your sister with a cup of [Bb] booze.
Halfway home in her parking lot.
[Eb] By the look in her eyes she was giving what she got.
[C] In her eyes.
One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.
[C] In her eyes.
One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.
[C] In her eyes.
One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.
[G]
[E]
[C] Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep.
On the [G] blood on my hands [D] and my last pile of [C] beef.
I can't leave you alone cause you're running around.
[G] My best man told [D] me you're the best to get down.
[Bb] You didn't know that rock and roll [Eb] burned.
So you bought a cannon and you learned and you learned.
[Bb] You got the rhythm.
You got the [Eb] speed.
Mama feelin' baby like you show that speed.
[C] One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.
[C] One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.
[C] One spit [F] and twice sharp babe.

[G] [D]
[Bb] didn't know you got a rock and roll record.
[Eb] Until I saw your picture on another guy's jacket.

[Eb] And look at you now.
Well it's darkness and fire.
[C] One spit and [F] twice sharp babe.
