Little Black Book

C
Well my pretty baby just left me this morning

  F                            C
Said she didn't wanna see me no more


Told me not to call her on the telephone
    D7                           G7
And never come a-knocking on her door


       C
Well I fumed and I fussed and I might have cried a little

  F                     C
My head went a-spinning around

    F                             C
But with a little bit of luck and my little black book

          G7                            C
I'll have another'n before the sun goes down



What my baby didn't know was the same thing happened

    F                       C
Not once but a half a dozen times


And she didn't realize that with a telephone call

    D7                                 G7
I'd have another fickle chicken on the line


Continues after the ad
    C
But every time I leave I do my best to play the part

   F                        C
Of the lovesick heart broke clown

    F                             C
But with a little bit of luck and my little black book

          G7                            C
I'll have another'n before the sun goes down



Now I haven't got a thing against a pretty little woman

     F                             C
Like her walk and her talk and her smile


I've been liking pretty girls since I found they wasn't boys

    D7                                       G7
And let me tell ya buddy that's been quite a while


  C
I like the hugging and the squeezing and the kissing and the teasing

    F                         C
But don't you let 'em push me around

       F                             C
'Cause with a little bit of luck and my little black book

          G7                            C
I'll have another'n before the sun goes down



Now that little girl's out a-telling everybody

    F                          C
How she made a big fool out of me


But while I'm out tonight a-romping and a-stomping

       D7                       G7
She'll be watching Dr. Casey on TV


   C
So girls let me tell ya better do a little thinking

F                                      C
'Fore you tell your loving man to leave town

       F                             C
'Cause with a little bit of luck and a little black book

          G7                            C
He'll get another'n before the sun goes down


       F                             C
'Cause with a little bit of luck and a little black book

          G7                            C
He'll get another'n before the sun goes down
