[Verse 1]
E A E
Well look out mamma, your little girl she has changed
A B
She cut her baby curls and she's got her act rearranged
A B
Well look out daddy, what she needs now she can't find at home
E A
Oh, Ricky wants a man of her
E A
She wants a man of her
E B E
Ricky wants a man of her own
[Verse 2]
E A E
Mama says her little girl won't talk to her anymore
A B
She just goes in her room, turns on radio, and shuts the door
A B
She's got her own bathroom, TV, stereo, extension phone
E A
Oh but mama, Ricky wants a man of her
E A
She wants a man of her
E B E
Ricky wants a man of her own
[Bridge]
B A E
Well, daddy says when he drops her off Friday night at the gym
B E A
She slides way down in the front seat so the kids won't see her with him
B A E
She don't do no work, she don't tell nobody when she's coming home
A B
She makes poor daddy wait down on the corner at midnight all alone
[Verse 3]
E A E
She used to like me to take her to a ballgame or a movie show
A B
She used to make daddy take his little girl where she wanna go
A E
Now we're left peeking through the curtains every time that we hear a horn blow
B E
I guess Ricky wants a man of her own
[Verse 4]
A E
Well my folks say "son talk to her, if she'll listen to you"
A B
Yeah she listens real nice and she does what she wants to do
A B
Daddy says she waers her jeans so tight "Well you change 'em or you're stayin' home"
E A
Oh, but daddy Ricky wants a man of her
E A
She wants a man of her
E B E A
Ricky wants a man of her own, she's almost grown
E A E
Ricky wants a man of her
A
She wants a man of her
E B E
Ricky wants a man of her own
