       Get A Leg Up


Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo

[Verse 1]
A                             G
Don't look at me, don't touch me
          A             G
Keep your mind straight ahead
A                           G
Don't get no funny ideas about me
A                    G
Or you'll wish that you were dead
D                            C
That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking
           D                     C
The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night
A                             G
She gives me a look from the corner of her eye
A                  G
That says, "Boy, keep acting right."
B
How surprised was I
                         E              E E
When she leaned over and whispered in my ear
 
[Chorus]
         A       G
Get a leg up  (ah, ah)
          A               G
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah)
         A         G
Get a leg up
                         A         G
What's the matter are you shy, shy, shy?
 
[Verse 2]
A                          G
I'm pretty good with first impressions
A                         G
But sometimes I'm not always right
A                      G
I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road
A                   G
To see what she had in mind
D                    C
Want me to spend the night
    D                     C
Hey lover boy you know I will
A                     G
And my best girlfriend down the road
A                 G
Together we will thrill ya
B
And I'm thinking to myself
           E
I could be lucky Pierre tonight
 
[Chorus]
         A        G
Get a leg up  (ah, ah)
          A               G
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah)
          A         G
Get a leg up
                       A           G
What's the matter are you shy, shy, shy?
 
[Solo]
A   G
 
[Verse 3]
A                     G
The rest of the night went on and on
A                   G
And the moral to this song
A                       G
Don't go making hasty judgments
A                                G
Because sometimes they could be wrong
D                    C
Nothing wrong with a good time
          D                         C
Just keep yourself protected, make a list
A                                         G
And you can bet your life that the women don't know
A                  G
The little girls are acting like this
B
So the next time a young one moves up
       E
And she whispers in your ear
 
[Chorus]
         A        G
Get a leg up  (ah, ah)
          A               G
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah)
         A         G
Get a leg up
                A         G
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy?
         A         G
Get a leg up  (ah, ah)
          A               G
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah)
                     A         G
Now you know I ain't handsome
                   A         G
But you know I aint shy, shy, shy
         A         G
Get a leg up  (ah, ah)
         A                G
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah)
         A         G
Get a leg up
                A         G
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy?
