Put it all together and it goes like this:
(intro) E7 riff twice
E7 riff
Sittin' thinkin' sinkin' drinkin'
E7 riff
Wondering what I' ll do when I' m thru tonight
A7 riff
Smokin' mopin' maybe just hopin'
E7 riff
Some little girl will pass on by
B7 A7
I don' t wanna be alone But I love my girl at home
E7 riff C7 B7
I remember what she said
E7 riff
She said, "My, my, my don't tell lies!
E7 riff
Keep fidelity in your head!
A7 riff
My, my, my, Don' t tell lies
E7 riff
When you' ve done your show hit the bed
B7 A7
Don' t say Hi, like a spider to a fly
E7 riff C7 B7
Jump right ahead and your dead!
Sit up, fed up, low down, go round
Down to the bar at the place I' m at
Sittin' , drinkin' , superficially thinkin'
about the rinsed out blonde on my left
and then I said Hi , like a spider to a fly
Remembering what my little girl said
(harmonica solo)
she was spiffy, shifty
she looked about fifty
I would have run away but I was on my own
She told me later she was a machine operator
she said she liked the way I held the microphone
I said, "My, my, my, like a spider to a fly
Jump right ahead in my web!"
(guitar solo and end)
