F5       F5                          F5                       F5
She had sulky smile, She took her standard pose, As she presented herself
F5       F5                        F5                F5
She had sultry eyes, She made it perfectly plain, That she was his for a price

            Db                    Db
But he said "leave me alone, I'm a family man
Eb5       Eb5 F5
And my bark is much worse than my bite
            Db                    Db
Please just leave me alone, I'm a family man
Eb5       Eb5 F5
But if you push me too far I just might"
