 B             G             F#
Hangin' round downtown by myself

           B                        G           F#
and I had so much time to sit and think about myself

                    B
and then there she was

      G             F#
like double cherry pie

                B
yeah there she was

      G          F#
like disco super-fly
[Chorus]

Who's that loungin' in my chair?

                  Bm         G             A
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?

                    B
and then there she was

      G             F#
in platform double suede

like disco lemonade
