[Verse 1]
A                               A
Head on down to 9th Street, gal,
A                                              A
let's go out kicking with the boys and the gals.
A                                 A
Wear your dress and bring my ring,
A*
someone's gonna get it, ain't gonna be me.

[Chorus]
A                  A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
A                   A
Lucy, Lucy, my sweet,
A                 A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
      A*
I was just gonna hit him, but I'm gonna kill him now.

[Verse 2]
A                                A
We all met about half-past three,
A                                           A
Lucy, she was rocking by my kicking machine.
A                                        A
Too many straights and not enough grease,
A*
that's when Lucy got it in the chest, I think.

[Chorus]
A                  A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
A                   A
Lucy, Lucy, my sweet,
A                 A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
      A*
I was just gonna hit him, but I'm gonna kill him now.

[Verse 3]
A                                               A
"They started fighting, I was screaming for him,
A                               A
boots all dirty, sexy, and thin.
A                                                         A
Then on come the lights, from the straights in their cars,
  A*
I was just a-laughing when I hit the floor".

[End-Chorus]
A                  A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
A                   A
Lucy, Lucy, my sweet,
A                 A
Lucy, Lucy, my gal,
      A*
I was just gonna hit him, but I'm gonna kill him now.
