Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em][E][B][Em][E]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Baby's got
a do rag on her head
An old banjo's under the bed
[B]She hates the damn thing
But she sure enough loves them [Em]blues

[Verse 2]
She says [Em]yelling at a flower
don't make it bloom
It's sunlight and water and elbow room
But [B]even a rose has got to
pay some [Em]dues[G][Em]
[E]Now the

[Verse 3]
[Em]Cross Canadian Ragweed band
Call her Mother Hubbard you [G]understand
[B]The reason is that's wha[Bm]t and[B] who she is
[Em]

[Verse 4]
[E]This mot[Em]her knows the value of vapor rub
[B]A belie[Em]f in God and overdubs
And that [B]good tone is [Em]more import
[B]ant than the [Em]show or the biz
Show business is a heartbreaking thing
But if you got [B]good tone you [Em]can get
through the gig
[B][Em][G]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
Soul Gravy and [G]literature is [Em]some
of what she prefer[B]s
Her old Lucky jeans and [Em]analog
She comes to bed in a negligee
Just to discuss [B]Cinema [Em]Verite'

[Verse 6]
She's the only woman I [B]know
that likes Reservoir [Em]Dogs
[G]I m[Em]ean I[E] l[Em]iked [E]it[Em]
but there was some
Scenes in there that kind [B]of
skived me [E]out[Em][B]
[Em]
Well I got two nickels and a paradigm
It ain't spelled right but it rhymes

[Verse 7]
I'm [Em]getting desperate
I'm about to derail
One more thing one last
confession
The mother asks some touch questions
Like [B]when Jesus went to heaven
did he leave a [Em]vapor [E]trail?

[Verse 8]
[Em]Uh, well I don't rightly know,
[B]well that's too deep for me

[Interlude 1]
[Em][B]
[Em][E]

[Verse 9]
[Em]Baby's got a do rag on her head
An old banjo's under the bed
She [B]hates the damn thing
But she sure enough loves [Em]them blues

[Outro 1]
