[Verse 1]
[D]My baby
don't like fancy places,
she just wants to make it to
the submarine races,
she [G]really wants to go...
Hey! Hey buddy! [D]Hey! Hey! Hey,
get out of [A]here, will
Hey, are you gonna go to
some [G]submarine races?
Well, it's [D]sort of an excuse, you know.
No, excuse.
At first, you didn't know
what it was all about.
buddy, I'd sure [G]like to go along,
[D]because I really like submarines.
[G]No, you don't.
You know, I've been studying them
since I've been a little whippersnap[D]per. No,
you don't understand.
Since I've been knee -high
[A]to a periscope [G]-y.
No, actu[D]ally, it's just an excuse.
Well, I've studied about
all the famous ones,
you know, like the Nautilus and the U -2.
Well, we just go down to the beach,
and we sort [G]of park by the Park?
Well, I'll be glad [D]to go with you
[G]and look out the [D]window.
Well, I don't think, [A]really,
my girl would like that too much,
[G]because we like...
Well, just [D]tell her I'm just kind of like a [Bb]friend,
you know?
[Eb]Well, it's kind of private.
There's really no races,
you know what I mean?
Well, there aren't!
What do you mean?
You [Ab]can just look at them, can't you?
Like from [Eb]afar, you know?
Well, see, really, what we do...
I'd like to [Bb]observe them
from your win[Ab]dow,
if I could.
No, [Eb]but you can't,
because we just go down to the park,
like on the end of Chautauqua.
And we could, like, look at the ocean.
Look at the ocean?
Well, I'd like to look at [Ab]the ocean
with your fella.
No, but I look at her
and she [Eb]looks at me and we smile.
[Bb]Yeah, I'd smile too if I [Ab]looked at you,
[Eb]buddy.
Well, anyhow,
I'd sure like to come along.
Now [Bb]look, if you just take
me along with [Eb]you,
I'll [Bb]do nothing but sit in the back se[Ab]at
and build my Rev[Eb]ell submarine kit race.
Well, we don't particularly
want you along.
Well, look, no, I'll be very quiet,
very quiet until I'll even let you glue on my conning tower.
Well, you're not necessarily involved in
Well, look, you can also build my little dragster.
