Topic: They Dont Know Me

They Don't Know Me.Undefined


[G] Hey, the motors running there's gas in the tank.


There's a [C] map on the dash, guitar's in the back.


I'm [G] going down south where it's not so cold.


Where the [C] music is loud and the bars are full.


And [D] little old ladies get helped cross the road.


And my [C] reputation is yet to unfold.






They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


[G] Just today I took a seven tonne truck.


[C] Drove it through the window of the Pizza Hut.


[G] They wouldn't serve me `cos I didn't pay.


For the [C] food I had there yesterday.


Well they [D] should have known what I would do.


Cos my [C] reputation is about to come true.


They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


[CHORUS)




[D] Pretty girl serving gave me “goo goo�eyes.



Don you [Em] know who I am? You don't give me no lies.


Two big [C] cops put the Tazer on me.


But I [D] gave them the slip and now I am free.




Don't they [G] know me? Don't they [C] know me?


Don't they [G] know me? Don't they [C] know me?


(SOLO OVER CHORUS)




And the [G] motors running while I'm hitting this bank.


Got a [C] gun in my pocket and I ain't paying tax.


But the [G] clerk hits the button and there's cops all around.


[C] Siren's and bullets make a god awful sound.


And [D] little old ladies look and point at my blood.


As [C] I'm laying there dying just like Bonnie and Clyde.




They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


They don't [G] know me. They don't [C] know me.


(SOLO OVER CHORUS)

Re: They Dont Know Me

Hey there Phill,

Great story line smile This reads like it's a fast paced C/W southern style rocker.
A recording coming up for this one hopefully, it sounds like it would be a fun one.

Cheers

Re: They Dont Know Me

hi kenny,

right on all counts. it is a fast-ish country/rock eagles style (maybe too eagles style?) so i'm hoping if it does sound too much of a steal. if you guys can tell me so i can pull it.

by the way, it's about what we brits call a wide boy, a thug and all round bad boy! steals cars and eventually graduates to robbing a bank, but ends up target practise for the cops. no loss there then!
more info if required.
it will be put up on my-space ASAP.

Re: They Dont Know Me

hi robert,

glad you liked the song, but i think you listened to the wrong track! they dont know me is a medium paced country song. i think the one you listened to is called "lime green pick-up truck" and is about an american military family and also quite fast. it sounds like a line dancing song to me....though i cant dance, not even waltz!!!. i shall put up pick-up shortly.

hi ark, always happy to hear your comments....
