1. Your
mama’s yapping in the backseat,

tell
her to push over and move them big feet,
G A
every Monday morning I gotta drive her
down

the unemployment agency.

Well, this morning I ain’t fighting, tell her I give up,
A D
tell
her she wins if she’ll just shut up,
G A D -
G - D
but
it’s the last time that she’s gonna be riding with
me.
G A
And you can tell her there’s a hot sun beating on the black top,
A D
she keeps talking, she’ll be walking
that last block,
Bm A - A7
she can take a subway back to the
ghetto tonight.
D G
Well, I got some beer and the highway is free.

and I’ve got you and, baby, you’ve got me !

Hey hey hey, what

on the beach,

they’re so fine but so out of reach.

I’m stuck in traffic down here on 53rd street.

Now,
Sherry, my love for you is real,

but I
didn’t count on this package deal,

and,
baby, this car just ain’t big enough for her and me.
G A
And you can tell her there’s a hot sun beating on the black top,

she keeps talking, she’ll be
walking that last block,
Bm

she can take a subway back to the
ghetto tonight.

To all the girls down at Sacred Heart,

and
all you operators back in the park,
