[Verse 1]
ADon't look at me, don't touch Gme
Keep your Amind straight Gahead
ADon't get no funny ideas aboGut me
AOr you'll wish that yGou were dead
AThat's what I'm thinking Gshe must be thinking
AThe girl I spentG 53 bucks on last night
AShe gives me a look from the cGorner of her eye
AThat says, "Boy, keGep acting right."
AHow surprised was IG
BWhen she leaned over and whispered in my Bear
[Chorus]
AGet a leg up G(ah, ah)
AGet a leg oGver boy (yeah, yeah)
AGet a leg Gup
AWhat's the matter are you Gshy, shy, shy?
[Verse 2]
AI'm pretty good with first Gimpressions
ABut sometimes I'm not alwaGys right
AI pulled the car to theG shoulder of the road
ATo see what she had Gin mind
AWant me to spend the Gnight
AHey lover boy you knowG I will
AAnd my best girlfriendG down the road
ATogether we will tGhrill ya
BAnd I'm thining to myself
BI could be lucky Pierre tonight

AGet a leg oGver boy (yeah, yeah)

[Verse 3]
AThe rest of the night Gwent on and on
AAnd the moral to thiGs song
ADon't go making hasty juGdgments
ABecause sometimes they could be wGrong
ANothing wrong with a good Gtime
AJust keep yourself proteGcted, make a list
AAnd you can bet your life that the women dGon't know
AThe little girls arGe acting like this
BSo the next time a young one moves up
BAnd she whispers in your ear
[Chorus]
AGet a leg up G(ah, ah)
AGet a leg oGver boy (yeah, yeah)
AGet a leg Gup
ANow don't you be shy, shy,G shy?
AGet a leg up G(ah, ah)
AGet a leg oGver boy (yeah, yeah)
ANow you knGow I ain't handsome
ABut you know I aint shy, sGhy, shy
AGet a leg up G(ah, ah)
AGet a leg oGver boy (yeah, yeah)
AGet a leg Gup
ANow don't you be shy, shy,G shy?
