|  | G | C | G | 
|  | Well, it's on the | table, Knife and fork and a | pan! | 
|  | D7 | G | G7 | 
| If you say anything a- | bout it You're in trouble with the | man |  |

|  | C | G | 
| 'Cause the Sheriff will ar | rest you And he'll carry you | down; | 
|  | D7 | G | G7 |

|  | C | G | 
| Umbrella on her | shoulder, Piece of paper in her | hand. | 
|  | D7 | G | 
| She's a-sayin' to the | captain: "I want my lifetime | man!" | 
| Let the minight special ... |  |
