[C#] [F#] [C#m]
[C#] I've been your slave ever since I was your age.
[G#] [A#] [F#]
[C#]
But [C#m] [F#] [D#] before I be your dog, I'll see you in your [C#m] grave.
Wild man wouldn't give me no breakfast, [B] wouldn't give me [C#] no dinner.
[G#] Squawked about [F#] my supper, then he put [C#m] me out of [F#] door.
Had the nerve to lay [F#m] a matchbox on my clothes.
[B] I [G#] didn't have so many, but I [C#m] had long, long ways to [G#] go.

[F#]
[C#] But my [G#] mother, she gave me [C#] something [F#] that'll [C#] carry me through this world.
Some [C#m] men like me cause I'm happy.
Some cause I'm snappy.
Some call me honey.
[F#] Others think I got some money.
Some [C#] tell me, baby, you [C#m] built for speed.
And [G#] if you put them all [F#] together, I'm [C#m] everything a good man [C#] needs.
[C#m]
[F#] [C#m]
I ain't good looking, and [G#] my hair ain't curled.
Had the nerve to lay [F#] a

Some men like me cause [C#m] I'm happy.
Some cause I'm snappy.
Some call me honey.
Others think I got some money.
[F#]
They tell me, baby, [G#] you built for speed.
[C#] [E] Now if you [G#] put that all [F#] together, it makes me everything a [C#m] good man [N] needs.
