Track 7 of 11 on the album "Country Hit Time" (1968) [Intro] A E7 A D A N.C. [Verse 1]
N.C.              A                      D
Did you hear what happened last Saturday night?

                  E7                        A
While dancing and drinking, we all got half-tight

                       A           A7           D
This sweet thing named Sharmon was dancing with me

                   A        E7                  A   D   A N.C.
When up jumped her boyfriend and he hollered at me
[Chorus]
N.C.                     A                          D
"Please don't squeeze my Sharmon, don't hold her so tight

                   E7                          A
You'd best heed my warning, it's my last one tonight

                     A             A7           D
She's soft and she's gentle and as sweet as can be

                     A         E7                  A   D   A   E7
And if Sharmon needs squeezing, then leave that to me"
[Slide Guitar Solo] A D A E7 A D A N.C. [Verse 2]
N.C.        A                          D
Along about midnight, I was feeling no pain

                E7                    A
And me and Miss Sharmon were dancing again

                  A          A7     D
Then Hank and big Harlan got into a fight

                    A     E7               A     D   A N.C.
And I heard someone holler as out went the light
[Chorus]
N.C.                     A                          D
"Please don't squeeze my Sharmon, don't hold her so tight

                   E7                          A
You'd best heed my warning, it's my last one tonight

                     A             A7           D
She's soft and she's gentle and as sweet as can be

                     A         E7                  A   D   A
And if Sharmon needs squeezing, then leave that to me

       D             A         E7                  A   D   A N.C. E7 A
And if Sharmon needs squeezing, then leave that to me"
