[Verse 1]
[Em]Let me tell you about a girl I know
Had a drink about a hour ago
[Am]Sitting in a corner by herself,
[B]in a bar in dow[C]ntown hel[B]l
[Em]She heard a noise,
and she looked through the door
And saw a man she'd never seen before
[Am]Light skin, light blue eyes,
[B]a double-chin and a pla[C]stic smi[B]le, well
[Em]Her heart raced as he walked in the door
And took an empty seat next to her at the bar
[Am]"My brand new car is parked right outside
[B]How'd ya like to go for a ride"?
And she said
[Em]"Wait a minute I have to think."
He said, "That's fine,
may I please buy you a drink"
[B]One drink turned into three or four,
and they [C]left and got in[B]to his [E]car
And they [C]drove away some [B]place real [E]far
Now babe the time has come
How'd ya like to have a little fun?
And she said
[B]"If we could only ple[C]ase be on our way,
[G]I will not run[D]."[B]

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Em]That's when things got out of control
[Em]She didn't w[C]ant to, [Em]he had hi[C]s wa[Am]y
[Em]She said, [C]"Let's go" H[Em]e said, "N[C]o wa[Am]y!"

[Chorus 1]
[B]Come on babe it's your lucky day[C]
[B]Shut your mouth, were gonna do it my way
[C]Com[B]e on baby don't be afraid
[C]If it [B]wasn't for date rape I'd never get laid

[Verse 2]
[Em]He finished up, he started the car
He turned around and drove back to the bar
[Am]He said "Now baby don't be sad,
[B]in my opinion you wer[C]en't half bad[B]"
[Em]She picked up a rock threw it at the car
Hit him in the head, now he's got a big scar
Come [Am]on party people won't you listen to me
[B]Date rape stylee
[Em]The next day she went to her drawer,
look up her local attorney at law
[B]Went to the phone and filed the police report
[Am]And then she took the guy's ass to court
[Em]Well, the day he stood in front of the judge,
he screamed, "She lies that little slut!"
[B]The judge knew that he was full of shit,
and he [C]gave him [B]twenty five [Em]years
And now his [C]heart is [B]filled with [Em]tears
One night in jail it was getting late
He was butt-raped by a large inmate,
and he [B]screamed
But the [C]guards paid no at[G]tention
to his [D]cries[B]

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Em]That's when things got out of control
The [Em]mo ral o[C]f the da[Em]te rape st[C]or[Am]y,
it [Em]does not [C]pay to be [Em]drunk and [C]hor[Am]ny

[Chorus 2]
[B]But that's the way it had to be[C]
[B]They locked him up and threw away the key
Well, [C]I c[B]an't take pity on men of his kind
[C]Even [B]though he now takes it in the behind
[Em][C][Em][C][Am]
[Em][C][Em][C][Am]
[B]That's the way it had to be[C]
[B]They locked him up and threw away the key
Well, [C]I c[B]an't take pity on men of his kind
[C]Even [B]though he now takes it in the behind
