    A                       D
Now my friend Bill was just a working lad
    C#                 D
And he liked to have his fun
    A                           E
He'd like to find a girl and get comfortable
    D                   E
When his working day was done
    F#m                          C#
He would spend all his money on a Friday night
    D                  A
Wake up in the morning broke
    F#m                        C#
But he had a run in with little Lucy then
    D                    E
Believe me that ain't no joke

   A    C#    F#m  D
Watch out for Lucy
   A       C#        F#m  D
Though she may look frail
   A          C#
Say excuse me, Lucy
   F#m        D
Darling don't you use me
   A          E         A    E 
I don't want to land in jail

 A                        D
She started out working in a cafe
       C#               D
Picking money up on the side
           A             E
She was free and easy, everybody's friend
         D              E
But she couldn't be satisfied
         F#m                   C#
So now in walks Bill with his cash in his hand
   D                A
His heart upon his sleeve
     F#m                 C#
We tried to warn him about her ways
 D              E
We never did succeed

      A                         D
Well, the trap was sprung for poor old Bill
           C#                     D
You should have heard little Lucy sing
           A              E
"I want a Cadillac car, a beautiful home
          D           E
And a thousand dollar ring."
     F#m                   C#
They found our hero in the gutter
       D                  A
With a diamond ring and a gun
     F#m                     C
He'd done it for the love of Lucy
     D              E
And ended up on the run
