I've Got News Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Man, [G]let me tell you,
I sure [D]am having trouble with
my woman these days.
You are? I sure am.
For some reason, I just can't [E]seem to get
[D]that woman to straighten up and fly right.
Well, let me tell you something.
I was having trouble with my girl,
too,
but I got her straightened out.
Is that right? What'd you do?
Well, I went over to her house,
[G]and I said, now, you listen to me, gal.
[A]Now, if [D]you want me to keep
hanging around,
then [G]you better listen while
I ex[G]pound.
And [D]if you'll pick up what
I'm [B]laying down,
then, [E]honey, I'm with [A]you.
Cause [D]if me and you are gonna
keep on datin',
[G]you're gonna need some educat[D]in'
And if you don't start co[B]operatin',
then I got [A]news for [D]you
Now [G]when I'm near, I wanna
hear those [D]sighs,
and see you roll those [B]big green eyes
And if [E]you say my lovin' satisfies,
then [A]honey, [D]I'm with [A]you
But [D]if you keep tellin' those little lies,
and [G]foolin' around with other [E]guys
Then [D]baby, [B]let me put you wise,
cause [D]I got [A]news for [D]you
[G][D][B][E]
[D]Now, you gotta quit of being so slow,
and if [G]we make a date to [E]go to the [D]show,
when I get there, you be [B]ready to go,
then [E]honey, I'm with [A]you.
[D]But if you think that I'm gonna
wait all night
and [G]run out of fingernails to bite
while [D]you try to get your [B]face on right,
then I've got [E]news for [D]you.
And [G]when we go out and have a few nips,
[D]don't try to float no [B]battleships,
just [E]take them small dainty sips
like [A]ladies sup[F#m]posed to [A]do.
But, [D]honey, if you think it's any fun
When [G]you drink, too, while I have one
And [D]I'm under the table and
[B]you've just begun
Well, [E]I got news for [D]you
[G][D][B][E]
[D]Now, when I take you
[G]up to my [D]place
And we get involved in [B]a little embrace
And you [E]say I send you to outer space
Then, [A]honey, I'm with [F#m]you
[A]But [D]if you get worried about
the way we pet
And [G]want to turn on that [E]TV [D]set
Or say let's have a [B]ci garette
Then [A]I got news for [D]you
Man, it sounds [A]like you
really [D]set her straight
But tell me, what did she say?
Oh, she had a little news for me, too
She did?
Yeah, she said she was tired of
this rat race
And she was [D]moving [A]on
[D]So if you don't want to be no fool
Take [G]my advice and [D]play it cool
Cause when you start to
lay [B]down that [E]rule
She'll have news for [D]you
Yeah, [E]she'll have [A]news for [D]you [G]you[D]
