I'm going to sing a song called,
I'm going to sing a song called, It's called,
And [Db] I'll never get arrested
[Ab] sitting on a poor [Bbm] man's throne
Well, I'd like to see my baby
I'd like to take her [Eb] to a jewelry [Bbm] store
But looking through a window
only makes a fellow hate life more
It's a savage night and busy but I never felt so all alone
And [Db] I'll never get arrested [Ab] sitting on a poor man's [Bbm] throne
