  G+G       D MajorD
I'm going down to Rose Marie's
C majorC         G+G
She never does me wrong.
G+G         D MajorD
She puts it to me plain as day
C majorC             A minorAm
 And gives it to me for a song.
    G+G        G7G7
It's a wicked life but what the hell
   C majorC         A minorAm
[and] everybody's got to eat
    G+G        D MajorD
And I'm just the same as anyone else
        C majorC         A minorAm
When it comes to scratching for my meals *)

G+G       C majorC
Goin' to Acapulco
G+G      FF
Goin' on the run.
G+G           C majorC
Goin' down to see soft gut
G+G         A minorAm
Goin' to have some fun.

Am------------------
Yeah

Now, whenever I get up
  C majorC         G+G
And can't find what I need,
G+G           D MajorD
I just make it down to Rose Marie's
  C majorC            A minorAm
and get something quick to eat.
   G+G            G7G7
It's not a bad way to make a living
  C majorC          A minorAm
And I ain't complainin' none.
  G+G            D MajorD
For I can blow my plum and drink my rum
     C majorC           A minorAm
And then go on home and have my fun

G+G           D MajorD
Now, if someone offers me a joke
C majorC       G+G
I just say no thanks.
 G+G       D MajorD
I try to tell it like it is
  C majorC       A minorAm
And keep away from pranks.
   G+G              G7G7
Now, everytime, you know, when the well breaks down
 C majorC         A minorAm
I just go pump on it some.
G+G        D MajorD
Rose Marie, she likes to go to big places
C majorC                  A minorAm
And just sit there waitin' for me to come.

Goin' to Acapulco
G+G      FF
Goin' on the run.

Goin' to have some fun.
