C F Now I don't want you folks to misconstrue what I'm about to say to you, C G7 C But I'm gonna tell you about the women in my life. C F Now I know some gals who are real refined, but I always seem to get the other kind, C G7 C And maybe that's why I've never found a wife. C F Now I used to know a gal in Crew, she was five foot two and eyes of blue, C G7 C And, well she told me that her name was Lotty, C F But I think she was funny in the head 'cause she used to sleep under- neath the bed, C G7 C Her parents thought she was a little potty. C F But I kind of liked the way she'd smile so I went around with her for a while, C G7 C And I kind of thought of her as my bride to be, C F I said, "You're the one girl in my life and I'd like to have you for my wife," C G7 C She said, "Now what would your wife do with me?" Chorus: C F Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women, C G7 Those wild, wild women around. C F Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women, C G7 C And never ever let 'em get you down. C F One day I met a movie star, she was just getting out of her Rolls Royce car, C G7 C And she was all covered in diamonds and mink. C F Now I kind of liked a gal with money, and this one, well, she was a real honey, C G7 C So I said, "Maybe one day you and I could have a little drink." C F She said, "You're just my kind of man." She stuck a phone number in my hand, C G7 C She said, "Now phone me up next time that you're in town." C F I said, "Is this your penthouse," she said, "No, it's the fish and chip shop down below, C G7 C But you just phone me up and they'll call me down." Chorus C F Now I was in a Chelsea bar one day, and there was a chap stood about five feet away, C G7 C And we was both admiring a girl about twenty-one, C F I said, "You just can't help but stare at that cute little chick with the long blonde hair," C G7 C He said, "That chick just happens to be my son." C F I said, "I didn't mean to offend, you must let me make a mend, C G7 C I mean at least let me buy you another rum. C F I said, "You must think me an awful cad, I didn't know you was his dad." C G7 C He said, "I'm not, you twit, I'm his mom." Chorus C G7 C F C G7 C And never ever let 'em get you dow-ow-ow-ow-own. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transcribed by Hoser deh@ark.com
