She was engaged to a fellow on the lay-a-way plan

But she carried all her money in a coffee can
          Chord diagramE MajorE        Chord diagramB7B7                  Chord diagramE MajorE
She said, "Darling, can I get a middle man "

The cook looked over with a short order face

I got competition everywhere I go these days

Like Natalie Wood on a Pontiac hood

Flo talked slow like real wet paint
             Chord diagramE MajorE
She said, "A middle man's there when the other ones ain't

Sleeps all day and keeps it up all night"

I got an aunt in Ohio and a boat that won't row
     Chord diagramA augmentedA
Some veterans insurance and nowhere to go

"Darling, can I be your middle man "

If I could get the money in that coffee can

Make Flo happy if I can
