I been watching you a while,

Some girls they want a handsome Dan,
        C    G       D
or some good looking Joe
         G           C                        G   D
On their arms some girls like a sweet talking Romeo
     G      D    G

              C        G       D
I learned you get what you can get

honey, I'm tougher than the rest

            Em   C
The road is dark,
                      G
and it's a thin, thin line
                  C                         D   G
But I want you to know I'll walk it for you any time
                 Em         C
Maybe your other boyfriends,
                  G
Couldn't pass the test
                                   C
Well if you're rough and ready for love,
       G           D        G
honey, I'm tougher than the rest
