Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[F][C][G]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
The [C]wind is in from Africa
[G]Last night I couldn't sleep
Oh, you know it [F]sure is hard
to [C]leave here, Carey
But it's really [G]not my home
[C]My fingernails are filthy
I've got [G]beach tar on my feet
And I [F]miss my clean white [C]linen
and my fancy [G]French cologne

[Chorus 1]
Oh [G]Carey, get out your cane
[C](Carey, get out your cane)
And I'll put on some [G]silver
(I'll put on some silver)
[F]Oh, you're a mean old [C]Daddy,
but [G]I like y[C]ou

[Verse 2]
Come on [C]down to the Mermaid Cafe
And I will [G]buy you a bottle of wine
And we'll [F]laugh and toast to [C]nothing and
Smash our [G]empty glasses down
Let's have a [C]round for these freaks
and these soldiers
A [G]round for these friends of mine
Let's have another [F]round
for the bright red [C]devil,
who Keeps me [G]in this tourist town

[Chorus 2]
Come on, [G]Carey, get out your [C]cane
(Carey, get out your cane)
I'll put on some [G]silver
(I'll put on some silver)
[F]Oh, you're a mean old [C]Daddy,
but [G]I like y[C]ou, I like you,

[Verse 3]
I like you, I like you
[C]Maybe I'll go to Amsterdam
Or [G]maybe I'll go to Rome
And [F]rent me a grand [C]piano and put some
flowers [G]'round my room
But [C]let's not talk about
fare-thee-wells now
The [G]night is a starry dome
And they're [F]playin' that scratchy [C]rock and roll
Beneath the [G]Matala Moon

[Chorus 3]
Come on, [G]Carey, get out your cane
[C](Carey, get out your cane)
And I'll put on some [G]silver
(I'll put on some [F]silver)
You're a mean old [C]Daddy,
but [G]I like y[C]ou

[Verse 4]
The [C]wind is in from Africa
[G]Last night I couldn't sleep
Oh, you know it [F]sure is hard to [C]leave here,
but it's really not [G]my home
[C]Maybe it's been too long a time
since I was [G]scramblin' down in the street
Now they got me [F]used to that
clean white [C]linen
and that Fancy [G]French cologne

[Chorus 4]
Oh [G]Carey, get out your cane
[C](Carey, get out your cane)
I'll put on my [G]finest silver
[F]We'll go to the Mermaid [C]Cafe,
have [G]fun [C]tonight
I said, [F]oh, you're a mean old [C]Daddy,
but [G]you're out [C]of sight
