One of the nicest things about being my age is having a son who's old enough to go on the road and pick guitar with [F] you and sing songs with you.
[N] And I'd like to introduce him to you now.
He's been playing with me in my band since I was, I don't know how old, but he was four.
I sang Mary and Michael.
It's a little song that we wrote together more or less because he called me up one night in the middle of the night and asked me for some advice.
It was on the subject of women.
[F]
As songwriters will do when [Em] things like that happen, I had absolutely no [F] decent advice for him.
But I wrote a song about it.
[B] [F] [D] [C]
[F] Hey daddy, I've [Bb] got a problem.
[C] Well last night I took my girlfriend [F] for a [C] ride.
[F] And the way she touched [Bb] my hand and [C] got this funny feeling deep [F] inside.
So I leaned over [Bb] and I kissed her, [C] [F] put [C] my arms around [F] her and then, [C] well [F] she reached up and she [Bb] slapped me.
[C] She said you're just like all [F] the other men.
Hey [Dm] son, you're talking to [Am] the wrong man.
[Bb] If you want to [Gm] know what [C] girls are all [F] about, [C] [F] you're talking to the wrong [Bb] man.
[Am] I still ain't [Cm] got your mama [F] figured out.
[F] By the way son, [Bb] I've got problems of my own.
[C] I wonder could you talk to your old [F] dad a while?
[C] [F]
See lately your mama [Bb] she ignores me.
[C] Hardly ever gives me [F] a little smile.
So I was thinking maybe [Bb] you could show me.
[C] The way you younger fellas use [F] all that mousse stuff on your [C] hair.
[F] I think I need to [Bb] change my style son.
[C] Could you find me one of them shirts with a little polo [F] player on it to wear?
Well [Dm] dad, you're talking [Am] to the wrong man.
[Bb] If you want to [Gm] know what girls are [C] all about, [F] you're talking to the wrong [C] man.
[Bb] [C] Still [F] ain't got [Eb] my girlfriend figured [F] out.
Well I thought about it a while and thought to myself what can I tell this confused young boy.
This modern world in which we live today.
About what to do about women.
And I thought and thought about it and I sort of came up with some advice.
And I hope you can pass this on now to your son if you ever have a [Am] situation like this arise.
[E] [F]
[E] [F]
Go [Bb] fishing.
[C] Or maybe head out to that old [F] golf course today.
[C] [F] When our buddies ask us about [Bb] the women.
Well dad [C] I think [F] I know exactly what we'll say.
Boys [Dm] you're talking [Am] to the wrong man.
[Bb] If you want to [Gm] know what girls [C] are all about, [F] you're talking to the wrong [Bb] man.
[F] Still ain't got them [Gm] women [F] figured out.
[C] Still ain't [Gm] got them women figured [Fm] out.
