[Intro]
C#
[Verse 1]
C#Johnny please don't tell the people bout the bluebirds flight
Wasting education on a Tuesday night
G#Yes, you are my pussy, you're just being mean
C#Covering up the muscle in your Jordash jeans
BStick up the phone, who is it?
G#Someone has come to visit
C#Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!
[Verse 2]
C#Do the mashed potato till your feet glow green
Got to sweep the floor to keep the crackhouse clean
G#Took me to the movies, but the doctor said
C#Leave him to get beaten by the black eyed meds
[Chorus]
BStick up the phone, who is it?
G#Someone has come to visit
C#Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!F#  
[Verse 3]
C#Now the captain ran for cover when the steamboats crashed
Driving off the bridges cause they got no class
G#Barbara's got my number, now I've got to run
C#Pizzas to deliver in the crackhouse slum, you know...
[Bridge]
F#Sometimes when the night gets hot
C#I search around for the crack I lost
F#I wouldn't expect for you to notice me
G#I would not expect you to say 'Johnny!'
[Verse 4]
C#Do the mashed potato till your feet glow green
Got to sweep the floor to keep the crackhouse clean
G#Took me to the movies, but the doctor said
C#Leave him to get beaten by the black eyed meds
[Chorus]
BStick up the phone like we do
G#Someone has come to see you
C#Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!F#

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Johnny please don't tell the people bout the bluebirds flight

Wasting education on a Tuesday night

Yes, you are my pussy, you're just being mean

Covering up the muscle in your Jordash jeans

Stick up the phone, who is it?

Someone has come to visit

Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!

[Verse 2]

Do the mashed potato till your feet glow green

Got to sweep the floor to keep the crackhouse clean

Took me to the movies, but the doctor said

Leave him to get beaten by the black eyed meds

[Chorus]

Stick up the phone, who is it?

Someone has come to visit

C# F#

Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!

[Verse 3]

Now the captain ran for cover when the steamboats crashed

Driving off the bridges cause they got no class

Barbara's got my number, now I've got to run

Pizzas to deliver in the crackhouse slum, you know...

[Bridge]

Sometimes when the night gets hot

I search around for the crack I lost

I wouldn't expect for you to notice me

I would not expect you to say 'Johnny!'

[Verse 4]

Do the mashed potato till your feet glow green

Got to sweep the floor to keep the crackhouse clean

Took me to the movies, but the doctor said

Leave him to get beaten by the black eyed meds

[Chorus]

Stick up the phone like we do

Someone has come to see you

C# F#

Everybody do the hokey pokey, do the crackhouse blues!
