Key: Bm


Verse 1 :
           Am
I'm in the kitchen
Am
Making the dinner that I know you like
Am
And I've been cleaning this damn house
Am
All day and all night
Am                                     F
But you don't pay me no attention
Stanley
                              Am
I'm needing your attention, baby
                         F
Just show me some appreciation
         N.C.
Or maybe take a bitch to dinner

I try to dress up
