[G](Put some records on while I pour)
[Versea-2]
The [C]neighbors might [C/G]think
(Baby, it's [C]bad out [C/G]there)

(No [Dm]cabs to be [Dm/G]had out there)
I [C]wish I knew [C/G]how

To break this [Gm]spell
(I'll take your [C7]hat, your hair looks swell)
[Verseb-2]
I [F]ought to say no, no, [F/C]no, sir

So nice and [Gm]warm
(Look out the [C7]window at that storm)
[Verseb-2]
My [F]sister will [F/C]be suspicious
([F](Gosh, your lips [F/C]look delicious)
My [D/F#]brother will be [D]there at the door
([G](Waves upon a tropical shore)
My [C]maiden aunt's mind is vicious

I've [C]got to get [C/G]home
