Eric Clapton - Watch Out For Lucy
Capo on 2
G Bm Em C
G D G D
G C
Now my friend Bill was just a working lad
Bm C
And he liked to have his fun.
G D
He'd like to find a girl and get comfortable
C D
When his working day was done.
Em Bm
He would spend all his money on a Friday night,
C G
Wake up in the morning broke,
Em Bm
But he had a run in with little Lucy then;
C D
Be lieve me that ain't no joke.
G Bm Em C
Watch out for Lucy,
G Bm Em C
Though she may look frail.
G Bm
Said, "Ex cuse me, Lucy,
Em C
Darling, don't you use me;
G D G
I don't want to land in jail."
G Bm Em C
G D G D
G C
She started out working in a cafe,
Bm C
Picking money up on the side.
G D
She was free and easy, everybody's friend,
C D
But she couldn't be satisfied.
Em Bm
So now in walks Bill with his cash in his hand,
C G
His heart upon his sleeve.
Em Bm
We tried to warn him about her ways,
C D
We never did succeed.
Chorus
G Bm Em C
G D G D
G C
Well, the trap was sprung for poor old Bill;
Bm C
You should have heard little Lucy sing
G D
"I want a Cadillac car, a beautiful home,
C D
And a thousand dollar ring."
Em Bm
They found our hero in the gutter
C G
With a diamond ring and a gun.
Em Bm
He'd done it for the love of Lucy
C D
And ended up on the run.
Chorus
