I really can't stand it anymore.'

F Dm G9
and the reason isn't very hard to see.
C7 F A7
She says 'God made her a sinner just to keep fat man thinner
Dm F7
as they tumble down in heaps before her feet.
Bb Bbm

to tremendous applause she took of her drawers
F D7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips
Dm C
and threw it all in the air - ev'rybody stared
Bb A7

But the judge said 'Patricia, or may I say Delicia,
Dm G7 C7
the facts of this case lie before me case dismissed
Bb C F Bb F
this girl was in her working clothes.

the police were yelling at the door

on a saturday night in nineteen-twentyfour -
