Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me on [E] my own
Me gotta go, pull the pillow down [A] my own
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me [E] on my own
Son of a gun, I'm gonna have [D] big fun [A] on the bound
Jumper lying across his spine, I feel [B] it come on
[E]
Cause tonight I'm gonna see Mama [A] Cher, me on
The guitar, the flute, the jaw, [E] and the gale
Son of a gun, I'm gonna [D] have big fun [A] on the bound
Leave the door, the phone's dang low, [E] the place is buzzing
Kenpo come to see Yvonne, [A] by the dozen
Dress in style and go hog wild, [E] me on my own
Son of a gun, I'm [D] gonna have big fun [A] on the bound
Jumper lying across his spine, [E] I feel it come on
Cause tonight I'm gonna see [A] Mama Cher, me on
The guitar, the flute, the jaw, [E] and the gale
Son of a gun, I'm [D] gonna have big fun [A] on the bound

[E] [A]

[A]
Yeah, settle down, far from town, get [E] me a hero
And I'll catch all the fish [A] in the bow
Swap my money for what [E] she need, oh
Son of a gun, I'm gonna [D] have big fun [A] on the bound
Jumper lying across his spine, I feel [E] it come on
Cause tonight I'm gonna see Mama [A] Cher, me on
The guitar, the flute, the jaw, [E] and the gale
Son of a gun, I'm gonna [D] have big fun [A] on the bound
