CWell my pretty baby just left me this morning
SaFid she didn't wanna see me no Cmore
Told me not to call her on the telephone
And D7never come a-knocking on her G7door
Well I Cfumed and I fussed and I might have cried a little
My Fhead went a-spinning Caround
But Fwith a little bit of luck and Cmy little black book
I'll have G7another'n before the sun goes Cdown
What my baby didn't know was the same thing happened
Not Fonce but a half a dozen Ctimes
And she didn't realize that with a telephone call
I'd D7have another fickle chicken on the G7line
But Cevery time I leave I do my best to play the part
Of Fthe lovesick heart broke Cclown
But Fwith a little bit of luck and Cmy little black A7book
I'll have aD7nother'n before the G7sun goes Cdown
Now I haven't got a thing against a pretty little woman
Like Fher walk and her talk and her Csmile
I've been liking pretty girls since I found they wasn't boys
And D7let me tell ya buddy that's been quite a G7while
I Clike the hugging and the squeezing and the kissing and the teasing
But Fdon't you let 'em push me Caround
'Cause Fwith a little bit of luck and my Clittle black A7book
I'll have anD7other'n before the G7sun goes Cdown
Now that little girl's out a-telling everybody
How Fshe made a big fool out of Cme
But while I'm out tonight a-romping and a-stomping
She'll D7be watching Dr. Casey on G7TV
So Cgirls let me tell ya better do a little thinking
F'Fore you tell your loving man to leave Ctown
'Cause Fwith a little bit of luck and a Clittle black A7book
He'll get anD7other'n before the G7sun goes Cdown
'Cause Fwith a little bit of luck and a Clittle black A7book
He'll get aD7nother'n before the G7sun goes Cdown
