Second-greatest frat-rocker ever (do
 I need to tell you what's #1?);
according to Dave Marsh, it sounds 
like it was 'recorded live at Animal
House'.  Originally done in the late
 50's by Dick Holler and the 
Holidays,
and covered in 1966 by both the 
K-Otics and the Swingin' Medallions,
 the
latter of whom took it all the way 
to #17 that summer.  And as for 
Holler
himself, he went on to write 
'Abraham, Martin, and John' - which 
goes to
show you never can tell.  --AWR

Verse 1:

        Ab                      
        Woke up this morning, my 
  Fm
head was so bad
             Db                  
        The worst hangover that I 
  Eb
ever had
        Ab               Fm
        What happened to me last 
night
              Db                Eb
        That girl of mine, she loved
 me so right (yeah!) (oh, oh)
             Ab                    
        She loved me so long and 
   Fm
she loved me so hard
           Db                   Eb
        I finally passed out in her 
front yard (whoo!)
        Ab                    Fm
        It wasn't wine that I had 
too much of
                 Db        Eb     
        It was a    double shot of
     Ab          Eb7
 my baby's love

Chorus:

        Ab                 Fm  
        Double shot of my baby's 
                   Ab
love, yeah yeah, yeah
        (Ab)               Fm  
        Double shot of my baby's 
                    Ab
love, yeah yeah, yeah
        (Ab)            Fm
        A potion that I had too much
 of
                 Db         Eb    
        It was a    double shot of
    Ab           Eb
 my baby's love

[repeat intro]

Verse 2:

        It was such a thrill it was 
hurtin' me (ooh!)
        I was sufferin' in ecstasy
        A sip of her love and I was 
walkin' one a cloud
        One night a week is-a plenty
 enough
        It's a good thing for me 
they don't bottle that stuff [pop!]
        Well, my heart begins to fly
 like a dove
        When I take a double shot of
 my baby's love

[repeat chorus]

Coda [repeat to fade over trash 
organ riff from intro]:

        Ab                Fm
        Double shot of my baby's 
love, yeah yeah, yeah
