Ab
So I slept in the hobo jungles,

Ab
Roamed a thousand miles of track,

Eb
Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama,

Eb
At a club they call Big Jack's,

         Ab
A little four-piece band was jammin',

     Ab
So I took my guitar and I sat in,

  F
I showed 'em what a band would sound like,

       Bbm
With a swingin' little guitar man.

              Eb      Bm      Eb      Bm
Show 'em, son
[Verse 4]
            E
Come on and buy yourself a ticket and I sat down in the very first row

A                 E                          A
  They pulled the curtain but then when they turned the spotlight way down low

       Bm
Little Egypt came out a-struttin' wearin' nothin' but a b***on and a bow

A                              Bm   Gb    G
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying

E

If you're looking for trouble

You came to the right place

If you're looking for trouble

                           C
Just look right in my face

                       C
I was born standing up

                 G
And talking back

   C
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack

             F                          C
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery

          G   F             C
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me
[Instru0mental] C F C [Verse 6]
C
I've never looked for trouble

C
But I've never ran

C
I don't take no orders

                G
From no kind of man

              C
I'm only made out

                    G
Of flesh, blood and bone

              C
But if you're gonna start a rumble

          Cm
Don't you try it on alone

             F              Eb          C
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery

          G    F                 Eb               C
Well I'm evil, jah, so don't you mess around with me
