Well, I had a guy that was so darn thin
    F#7
Not much of him but bones and skin
B7
One thing about him I can understand
   E7                         E7
He wraps all around me like a rubber band

Well,  I met a guy who was big and fat                        
F#7
Most girls don’t like to see them like that
B7 
But I like to see ‘em big and tall
     E7                   E7
The  bigger they come the harder they fall

Well, I met a boy liven down the street                      
F#7
Kinda young, but awful sweet
B7 
When he started rocken me, you don't want to stop
E7                            E7
