Intro: (Em)  (D)  (Em)  (D)

My (G) buddy said his girlfriend was as (D) pretty as can (G) be
He said (C) help a brother (G) out tonight and come double date with (D) me
She's (C) got a baby sister and they're (G) headed into (C) town
They're (G) lookin' for a good time and they're (D) fun to be ar(G)ound

I said (G) what do she look like?
He (D) scratched his head and (G) stated
"She was a (C) home comin' (G) football queen before she gradu(D)ated.
We'll (C) wine and dine and do 'em fine and (G) really double (C) date 'em
Then (G) take 'em back to the Motel 6 and (D) try to seper(G)ate 'em.

They (A) showed up in a pick up
They were (D) right on time
(A) His was kinda heafty
But not (D) half as big as mine

  I'm runnin' (Em) block
  (D) Turn the lights down low
  Runnin' (Em) block
  Don't (D) want know one to know
  That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
  Some(G)times you got to bow up
  And (D) take one for the (G) team

She (G) cleaned her plate at dinner
Then she (D) ate what's left of (G) mine
Then she (C) wolfed down a big (G) cheesecake as I drank all the (D) wine
She (C) strolled out to the patio for an (G) after dinner (C) cig
I said (G) "Bro you done 'er this time and (D) gonna owe me big

You know why?
'Cuz my (A) brother's havin' a party
(D) Thought you outta know
He's got (A) coeds swimmin naked
The (D) reason I can't go

  Is I'm runnin' (Em) block
  (D) Turn the lights down low
  Runnin' (Em) block
  Sure don't (D) want know one to know
  That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
  Some(G)times you got to bow up
  And (D) take one for the (G) team

When (G) we got back to the motel, (D) I kicked up my (G) feet
And she (C) put me in a (G) headlock and said, sunggle up with (D) me
My (C) buddy finished early and when (G) he walked through the (C) door
I was (G) layin' there half naked
She had me (D) pinned down to the fl(G)oor

Son, I (A) can't believe you caught me
(D) With this big ol' jelly roll
You'll (A) laugh at me tomorrow
YOu can't (D) ever tell a soul

  That I'm runnin' (Em) block
  (D) Turn the lights down low
  Runnin' (Em) block
  Don't (D) want know one to know
  That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
  Some(G)times you got to bow up
  And just (D) take one for the (G) team
