[Verse 2]
E B
Last night while I was trying to sleep
A E
I heard a racket from the room next door, hum
E B
And that was you and your man havin' a fight
A E
Like you've done so many nights before
E B
"Woman, I'll turn you every which way but loose"
A E
Is what I heard him shout, uh-oh, look out!
E B
So I jumped out of the bed and I opened the door
A E
Just as you came runnin' out, And I hollered baby
[Chorus 2]
E B
Why don't you try me tonight?
A E
Why don't you try me?
E B
Why don't you try me tonight?

Why don't you try me?

E B
I ain't saying I'm all that you need
A E
And I won't tell you, honey, you will be free
E B
But all night, well, I will keep trying
A E
And when I say I want ya, girl, you know I'm not lyin'
E B
You see a good woman out on the streets these days, friends
A E
Ah, a bad old man can't be hard to find, no, no
E B
Kind of man who'd steal your heart
A E
And call true love a crime, that's why I keep asking ya, baby
[Chorus 3]
E B
Why don't you try me tonight? Do yourself a favor!

Why don't you try me?
