Chorus:
 
            D             D/C#     D7
It's just a little bitty, pissant, country place,
G                     E7
Ain't nothin' much to see,
   A                          A7                G        A      D
No drinking allowed, we get a nice quiet crowd, plain as it can be.
     A7     D               F/Db     D7
It's just a piddly squatin' old time country place,
G             G/F#     E7
Ain't nothing too high tone,
     A                            A7
Just lots of good will, and maybe one small thrill,
            G*                  D
But there's nothing dirty going on;
G       A           D
Nothing dirty going on.
Verse:
 
D             E7       A7             D
We get simple farmers, local business men,
D                   B7      E7                     A
Congress folks from Austin, young boys looking for sin.
       D                    D7                    G            B7
Now we used to get a lot of rough necks, when the oil boom was high,
        G                      D     B7       E7      A7        D
But pay day would get a little rowdy
thank God the field run dry.

Ain't nothin' much to see,
   A                          A7                G        A      D

But there's nothing dirty going on;
G       A           D
Nothing dirty going on.
 
 
Verse:
 
D               E7             A7                 D
I don't hire no married girls, they're not on the ball,
D                  B7        E7                    A
They got homes and husbands, they're not stable at all.
         D               D7                    G               B7
You know they don't understand a thing about a proper business day,
    G                           D      B7            E7       A7     D
Now what's the point in opening up the store, if you give the goods away?
 
D                  E7           A7                 D
Keep your language clean girls, keep your bedrooms neat,
    D                     B7                 E7          A
And don't hang around the town cafe and say β€œhi,” on the street.
          D               D7                     G             B7
Mind your P's and Q's and manners, and you don't need no other tools,
       G               D          B7        E7      A7    D
β€˜Cause every girl that lives here knows, my special no-no rules;
    G               D          B7          E7     A7    D
Yea every girl that lives here knows, Miss Mona's no-no rules.
D
Ruby, Ray start em!
 
 
Bridge 1:
 
D
Beds are not to be wallowed in,
           D7                              G
That's the kind of thing that big fat lazy hogs do.
       G
And it don't make money!
G
Betrix!
        D                                                     A         A
I won't tolerate no tying up my telephone with other peoples' business.
A
Eloise honey!
    D
And please don't show us no tattoos,
              D7              G
No hearts and flowers on your thigh,
G
It's downright tacky.
D                            A                     A7              D
Brands belong on cattle, and that ain't what we're selling at Miss Mona's.
D      D7
Do you catch my drift?
 
          G                          D
I pay the food and the rent and the utilities,
              G                         D
You keep your mind on your work responsibilities.
               G                       D
Don't let your mouth overload your capabilities,
    A      G    D
And we can get along.
 
D
Dawn!
G                                    C            G
Any bad habits you come in with, get rid of right now,
G
Tatty Joe!
G                                A7                D
I can't stand no chewing gum, it looks just like a cow.
D7
Linda Lu!
G                                     C                 G
Any one taking sick leave ought to be real sure they're sick,
    G                        C
And every time you hear that bell  
           D        C      G
You better get here double quick.
 
 
Bridge 2:
 
           C
And as for pimps,
C
Pimps are something you don't need,
   C7             F
To get your daily business done.
F
Are you listening good?
 
          C
Keep them leaches and blood suckers off the back roads,
       F
I know how to use a gun,
    F
And nobody messes with my girls.
        C                                  C7
And any questions you might have about the way I run this place
                F
Don't gripe and whine behind my back,
                     C
Just tell me face to face, I'm open-minded, say it all
     G                         C      C7
Then go upstairs and pack, the door's that-a-way
 
             F                            C
She pays the food and the rent and the utilities
            F                          C
We keep our mind on our work responsibilities
               F                         C
Don't let your mouth overload your capabilities
    G      F    C    A   A7
And we can get along

Ain't nothing too high tone,
     A                            A7
Just lots of good will, and maybe one small thrill,
     A                            A7
Just lots of good will, and maybe one small thrill,
     A                            A7
Just lots of good will, and maybe one small thrill,
 
            G       A           D
But there’s nothing dirty going on; Pah
