Sweet Thang Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [D]slipped out of the house
about sundown,
while [G]mama was a -washing her [D]hair.
And you can bet your bottom dollar,
she'll come looking for me,
when she [E]finds that I'm not [A]there.
And if she [D]catches her sweet thing
running around,
I [G]know there'll be the devil to pay.
[D]Well, she'll come [G]blowin' like
a cyclone [D]through that door
[B]And I can hea[E]r exactly wha[A]t
she'll [D]say[Eb][E]
Well, has [A]anybody here seen Sweet Thing?
I got a [D]notion he'll be headed this [A]way
Cause when my Sweet Thing
starts his slippin' around
He finds a [B]sandbox like this to [E]play
I want to [A]tell all you foreign roses
If my [D]sweet things should happen by
[A]You better tak[D]e my advice
And if you [A]blink more than twice
[F#]You better have [B]something in y[E]our
[A]eye[D][A][D][A][F#m][B]
[E][A][Ab][A]
I [G]give my [D]baby all my money on payday,
except [G]a little that she don't know I g[D]ot.
Cos there's a cute little waitress
at the corner cafe,
and she [E]seems to like me quite a [A]lot.
Well, we were [D]sittin' in this back booth
just havin' a talk,
and she's [G]believin' every
word that I [D]said.
When the [G]door blew open
and Mama [D]walked [B]in
Yellin' [E]loud enough to
[A]wake the [D]day[Eb][E]
Well, has [A]anybody here seen my sweet thing?
I got a [D]notion he'll be headed this way
[A]Cause when my sweet thing
starts his slippin' around
He finds a [B]sandbox like this to [E]play
I want to [A]tell all you cafe cuties
if I [D]sweet things should happen [A]by
You better [D]take mom's advice,
and if you [A]blink more than twice
[F#]you better h[B]ave something [E]in your eye
[A]You better tak[D]e old mom's advice,
and if [A]you blink more than twice
[F#]you better have [B]something in y[E]our eye
you
