[Verse 1]

Well I’ve been waiting and it’s a Saturday night
      D                                            A
And I called up the boys, We’re going cruising tonight
          E                                     A
There’s a party on and they say it’s gonna be alright


[Verse 2]
    A
Well we parked our customs ,on somebody’s front lawn
     D                               A
And me and the boys , we sneak in the back door
   E                                          A
We mingle in like we done it a million times before


[Chorus]
A
(On the Prowl)..that’s how we get our fun
        A
(On the Prowl)..now don’t you tell my mum
        D
(On the Prowl)..about the company I keep
        A
(On the Prowl)..you know it ain’t so discreet
E                                      A
Prowling with the boys   on a Saturday night


[Verse 3]
A
Well all was quiet until we turned off the lights
      D                                       A
And I heard some shouting, someone started a fight
      E                                   A
And I struck a match,   I nearly died of fright


[Bridge 1]
N.C.              A  D  C  A                 A  D  C  A
Know what I saw,              good golly grief,
N.C.
I was looking at the police chief


[Chorus]
        A
(On the Prowl). now I’d seen it all
A
(On the Prowl). the policeman’s ball
        D
(On the Prowl). they were everywhere
        A
(On the Prowl). so I ran for the stairs
E                                      A
Prowling with the boys   on a Saturday night

[Bridge 2]
N.C.               A D C A                   A D C A
The lights came on,         but we were gone,
N.C.
I made it to the door at half the speed of light
N.C.            A D C A                   A D C A
Got to my car,             I nearly died,
N.C.
There was a policeman sitting smiling inside


[Chorus]
        A
(On the Prowl) I didn’t know what to say
        A
(On the Prowl) you know that crime does not pay
        D
(On the Prowl) I knew I was done
        A
(On the Prowl) coz he was wearing a gun
E                                    A
Prowling with the boys on a Saturday night


[Chorus]
        A
(On the Prowl) all the boys had gone
        A
(On the Prowl) left me all alone
        D
(On the Prowl) towed away my car
        A
(On the Prowl) I should have stayed at home
E                                     A
Prowling with the boys on a Saturday night
