[Em] How'd last night, the night before,
Did the light catch me, [A] sneaking in my [Em] door?
Oh, a [A] little bit of wildness, sure goes a long way,
And I'm [A] gonna need help just to get me through [B] the day.
[Em] I knew that, I knew that.
I woke up this morning, [Em] slightly out of tune,
Had to leave my old Cadillac down in Vietcum.
I go [A] back across the river, pick it up [Em] sometime today,
And [A] while I'm there I might have to check out Manuel's [B] Cafe.
[E]
I [Em] need my Lizzy, I need my Lizzy.
Well, well, well.

[Em] [B] [Em]
It's a cool life, continuity,
A little air conditioning, [A] and my silver air stream.
But I need to kick back and see what [Em] condition I'm in,
Cause [A] it won't be long till I'm down in this [B] cross river again.
[Em] I knew that, I knew that.
Way across the river, [E]
[Em] I knew that.
Now, I'm going to go to sleep,
[E] Cause I know [Em]
I'm gonna need that,
[E] I'm gonna need [Em] that.
