[Intro]
B
[Chorus]
 BWhat’s a  gEuy gotta do to get a girl in this town.
Don’t want to be alone when the  Bsun goes down.
Just a sweet little somethin’ to put my arms around.
What’s a guy gotta do to get a girl in this  Etown.
[Verse 1]
Well,  Eask anybody, I’m a pretty good guy.
And the looks decent wagon did’nt  Bpass me by.
There ain’t nothin’ in my past that I’m tryin’ hard to hide.
     N.C.                                                                                          B  
And I   don’t understand why I gotta wonder  why.
[Chorus]
 BWhat’s a  gEuy gotta do to get a girl in this town.
Don’t want to be alone when the  Bsun goes down.
Just a sweet little somethin’ to put my arms around.
What’s a guy gotta do to get a girl in this  Etown.
[Verse 2]
Well,  Ecruise all around the right parking lots. 
A little time gets killed, a lot of  Bbull gets shot.
One’ll think I’m kinda cute and laugh at every joke I got. 
      N.C.                                                      B  
When I    get to thinkin’ maybe, she’s a thinkin’ maybe  not.
[Chorus]
 BWhat’s a  gEuy gotta do to get a girl in this town.
Don’t want to be alone when the  Bsun goes down.
Just a sweet little somethin’ to put my arms around.
What’s a guy gotta do to get a girl in this  Etown.
[Verse 3]
Had an  Eold man tell me…, “Boy, if you were smart.
You’d hit the produce aisle at the  BSuper Wal-Mart.”
So I bumped into a pretty girl’s shopping cart.
      N.C.                                                        B  
All I   did was break her eggs & bruise her artichoke  hearts.
[Chorus]
 BWhat’s a  gEuy gotta do to get a girl in this town.
Don’t want to be alone when the  Bsun goes down.
Just a sweet little somethin’ to put my arms around.
What’s a guy gotta do to get a girl in this  Etown.       
What’s a Bguy gotta do to get a girl in this  Etown.
