Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Side Of Fries [Intro] Bm G Bm G [Verse 1]
     D
I was walking down the street one day
And my mind was in a slide
D
When this well-dressed, all-dressed, hot dog said
"French fries on the side"
       E
He was golden brown and about six feet long
His bun was toasted fast
   G
As he turned away, he did remark

 A7
"Frankfurts built to last"
[Chorus]
         D
Well, my momma didn't tell me

       A7           D
And my poppa didn't say

     A7
This world's a busy place 

                      D
And time just wastes away

F
Brother didn't happen

    C
And sister never stayed

A7
Momma hardly opened

    G           A7      D  A7  D
And Poppa never played
[Verse 2] Once I came home with a brand new suit And a charge account to boot
D
There was a Chevrolet sitting on the couch 
With a Cadillac ready to toot
E
After drinks and conversation too
'Bout the meaning of inner need
G
Said, you're a man for real, Yes, it's a deal

     A7
Satisfaction's guaranteed
[Chorus]
         D
Well, my momma didn't tell me

       A7           D
And my poppa didn't say

     A7
This world's a busy place 

                      D
And time just wastes away

F
Brother didn't happen

    C
And sister never stayed

A7
Momma hardly opened

    G           A7
And Poppa never played
[Instrumental] D A7 D E G A7 [Chorus]
         D
Well, my momma didn't tell me

       A7           D
And my poppa didn't say

     A7
This world's a busy place 

                      D
And time just wastes away

F
Brother didn't happen

    C
And sister never stayed

A7
Momma hardly opened

    G           A7      D  A7  D
And Poppa never played
[Verse 3] I was lying on my desk at ease Cancelling the afternoon
D
When the door swung open to a fruit of the loom
Screaming, "Smoke me to the moon"
E
He was a xenophobe with a .38
Besides a ruptured spleen
G
But I kept my cool, as he slowly drooled

     A7
Only Brand X cleans to clean
[Chorus]
         D
Well, my momma didn't tell me

       A7           D
And my poppa didn't say

     A7
This world's a busy place 

                      D
And time just wastes away

F
Brother didn't happen

    C
And sister never stayed

A7
Momma hardly opened

    G           A7      D  A7  D
And Pappa never played
