You think you're gonna please her

       C#
so you walk right up and tease her

        C              F
but she walks right on by

D
You're scared to walk beside her

              C#
'cause you're playin' with a spider

       C          F
who posesses the sky

              C                  F
She's got the green backs, my oh my

          C              F
You gotta act tall think big

                    C           F
if you wanna make a mark in her book

            C                   F
Gotta get a hit get a car fancy clothes

                          C              F
or she'll throw you right off of her hook

           C
Here's the news you are but one fish in her back garden sea

F                   C             F
  Gotta make like a shark to be free

                      C
Somethin' bad on your mind get it off
Take my tip, get it off, take my tip,
       G           F#          F
get on out

D
