        [Em9]Puttin' your business in the street, [A13]talkin' out loud


        [Em9]Sayin' he's bought her this and that and [A13]how much you done spent


        [Em9]I swear she must believe it's [A13]all heaven-sent


        [Em9]Hey boy, you better [A13]bring the chick around


        [Em9]To the sad, sad truth, the d[A13]irty lowdown


        [Em9]           [A13]       [Em9]                            [A13]                                

 (Ooh, ooh, ooh, I wonder-wonder-wonder-wonder who)




        Taught her how to talk like that


        [Em9]           [A13]       [Em9]                            [A13]                                

 (Ooh, ooh, ooh, I wonder-wonder-wonder-wonder who)




        Gave her that big idea


        Em9  A13 (2x)


verse 2:


        Nothin' you can't handle, nothin' you ain't got


        Put your money on the table, drive it off the lot


        Turn on that old lovelight, gonna make it do, yes


        Same old schoolboy game got you into this mess


        Hey son, you better get on back to town


        Face the sad old truth, the dirty lowdown


                                                                                     

 (Ooh, ooh, ooh, I wonder-wonder-wonder-wonder who)




        Put those ideas in your head


                                                                                     

 (Ooh, ooh, ooh, I wonder-wonder-wonder-wonder who)

        You don't got to be bad, got to be cold
