Misc Unsigned Bands – Coot Grant And Kid Wesley Wilson - Get Off With Me (Guitar)

E                   E
I know a man by the name of Jack Frost,

E                         E
Originated the dance they call "Gettin' Off."

A                  A
 Every night about half past twelve,

        E                        E
You can hear all the pretty gals yell:

    B           A       E              E
Get off with me, Honey, bend your knee!

      B                          A
Don't get too strong, 'Cause you can't last long

        E           E
Gettin' off with me!

E                          E
Jack goes home and want to be alone;

E                          E
Can't sleep a wink for the telephone.

A                  A
Takes the receiver in his hand,

E                              E
Here's the words he heard from Mary Anne:

B               A       E              E
Get off with me, Honey, bend your knee!

            B                       A
The music's good and hot, It really takes the spot!

        E            E
Gettin' off with me!

        E                     E
I heard Dirty Clothes said to Gold Dust Twin,

    E                           E
You ain't been around since the lord knows when.

A                  A
Gold Dust began to make a fuss;

E                         E
I heard Dirty Clothes out in the tub:

    B           A         E          E
Get off with me, And I'll let you be,

      B                          A
I hate to hurt, You poor little dirt,

        E            E
Gettin' off with me!

E                     E
Jack takes a gal to a Lindberg Hop,

E                              E
They danced so rough till they made her stop.

A                         A
She fell down; they made her go home,

E                           E
Because she didn't have the right clothes on,

    B           A       E              E
Get off with me! Honey, bend your knee!

      B                          A
She looked so swell, On the day she fell,

        E            E
Gettin' off with me!

E                             E
There's a dancing deacon live next door to me,

E                     E
He just at the age of sixty-three,

A                            A
Whenever I get up around the break of day,

  E                  E
I heard the old lady when she say,

    B           A       E              E
Get off with me, Honey, bend your knee!

            B                   A
Be careful, old man Jack, Don't hurt your back,

        E            E
Gettin' off with me!

E                        E
Mr. Buren said to Lizzie Ford one time,

E                           E
"Ain't seen you 'round in a long, long time."

A          A
He lift up Lizzie's hood,

    E                 E
And say, "Your engine sure look good!"

    B           A       E              E
Get off with me, Honey, bend your knee!

      B                      A
Don't go too fast, Or you'll lose your gas

        E            E E
Gettin' off with me!
