[G] [E] [B] [E]
I was ship-shake, she checked out around, used to live down, down, down, in trucker town.
[Em] It was a bad, bad, [E] bad time, but it was 15 years since I heard her sound.
Said look, look, come on down, cause we've been lost, all shaken, shaken down.
I said how am I truckin' [Em] around, cause I need [Bm] to see, [D] the jackpot, pop-top, [A] and Mr.
[Em] [Bm]
[D] Levy, I [A] know what I [Em] mean.
I'm shower, [E] shower, shower, I'm been losing showers, and showers, [Em] and showers, and this
whole thing can't come to me around.
By the time I get to Texas, you'll find I'm down, I wear the bag, boom, bodies all become ground.
I said look, look, look, look, I found her, what's funny, cops, tough, chef, shorty, crowned.
I said look, look, look, look, I found her, what's funny, cops, tough, chef, shorty, crowned.
I sat her down in the hallway, I said look, look, look, look, all the mops, she started
hackin' now you know.
Well I left the yard, there I am 16's back home, a tour of 68 missions, in the dang new Rome.
Now I'm a one-mole mission as you, and that's right, I need, [Bm] to see, [D] the jackpot, bomb,
Where [A] the next to tree, [Em] oh, oh, [Bm] oh
Please believe [D] me I'm [A] not [Em] mean
Even [Bm] I'm clean, [D] oh
I'm getting [A] right by us now
[Em] If you see [Bm] what I've seen
[D] Oh, you [A] know what I mean [Em] Baby now
I'm a sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp
I'm [E] looking round, looking out of the low
You know it's hard to taste shorty
New Mexico, what a day to pick it up
Guadalupe, Slytherin, getting caught
Getting down to New Orleans
And you're okay, it's the States
And the A's, it's the States
It's straight up shorty
You hesitate, it's not a date
So how about a shot of shorty
[Em] How about a trip to half-meat old dude
I knew about [E] you when you started
Knocking back on Rouge
[Em] You're a shorty, shot of shorty
Making a stand
It's over, smack, shove it up
And until you've got it in your hand
It's in the shorty kind of thing
You're getting the job
For every hole in the whistle
Said, let's follow
[E]
[Em] Time to shine, [Bb] sheriff, shorty is down
[E] Cause I'm [Bm] mean
See, [D] jacked up on meth [A] and better meat
[Bm] No, please [Gbm] believe me, I know
[A] But I'm [Em] mean, [Bm] I'm clean
[D] Getting [A] off right now, [Em] you see [Bm] Let's see
[D] [A] [Em] [Bm] [D] [A] [Em] [Bm]
