As recorded by Nick Lowe (From the 1984 Album NICK LOWE AND HIS COWBOY OUTFIT) [Verse 1]
   G
[tab]G
You skinny little hill of beans

G
You're the prettiest senorita

   D
On just outside of Molina

D
It's a wonder how you get away

D
With your humping and pumping and your switch and sway

                                         G
Every peeping Tom in towns been round to see ya
[Verse 2]
G
Maureen, Maureen

G
Don't you be nobody's fool

G
I'm older boy than you

         D
And I've learned a trick or two

D
I've earned a kick or two

D
Along the way I could've done away with

                            G
If I'd acted then and not delayed it
[Bridge]
         C
But it's all that I can do

           G
To get you in my arms each night

         C                 A
That's a hoop of fire I've got to jump

   D                      D
To kiss and hold you tight

       D        D
Maureen, Maureen

       D
Maureen, Maureen

                           G
You pretty little thing Maureen
[Verse 3]
G
Maureen, Maureen, let's put a bit of space between

G
Us and your Daddy's dream

            D
Him and his in by 10:15

D
We could run through the jungle in the cover of night

D
Be in a border town by first light

                                                    G
And tell the folks back home by phone everything is alright
[Piano Solo] G [Bridge]
     C
It's all that I can do

           G
To get you in my arms each night

         C                 A
That's a hoop of fire I've got to jump

   D    N.C.              D
To kiss and hold you tight

       D        D

Be in a border town by first light

                                                    G
And tell the folks back home by phone everything is alright
