G Bm Em C G D G D
        G       C
Now      my friend Bill was just a working lad

        Bm      C
And he   liked to have his fun.

        G       D
He'd like to     find a girl and get comfortable

        C       D
When his         working day was done.

        Em      Bm
He would         spend all his money on a Friday night,

        C       G
         Wake up in the morning broke,

        Em      Bm
But he   had a run in with little Lucy then;

        C       D
Be      lieve me that ain't no joke.

        G       Bm     Em     C
         Watch   out for         Lucy,

        G       Bm     Em     C
         Though she      may look frail.

        G       Bm
  Said, "Ex     cuse me, Lucy,

        Em      C
         Darling, don't you use me;

        G       D      G
         I don't want to land in jail."
G Bm Em C G D G D
        G       C
She      started out working in a cafe,

        Bm      C
Picking          money up on the side.

        G       D
She was          free and easy, everybody's friend,

        C       D
But she          couldn't be satisfied.

        Em      Bm
So now   in walks Bill with his cash in his hand,

        C       G
His      heart upon his sleeve.

        Em      Bm
We       tried to warn him about her ways,

        C       D
We       never did succeed.
Chorus G Bm Em C G D G D
        G       C
Well, the        trap was sprung for poor old Bill;

        Bm      C
You should have   heard little Lucy sing

        G       D
"I want a        Cadillac car, a beautiful home,

        C       D
And a    thousand dollar ring."

        Em      Bm
They     found our hero in the gutter

        C       G
With a   diamond ring and a gun.

        Em      Bm
He'd     done it for the love of Lucy

        C       D
And      ended up on the run.
