^FHere comes my g^Dmuy, ^FWalkin' down the st^Dmreet, ^FLook how he w^Dmalks, with a da^Fncin' b^Dmeat (Dah da da d^Fah) Big wavy h^Dmair, (Dah da da d^Fah) A little too l^Dmong, ^FAll day lo^Dmng he's a-s^Fingin a s^Dmong,

Chorus:

^FAnd when I see him i^Dmn the street ^FMy heart takes a leap and s^Dmkips a beat,

(Stomp boots over next two lines, chords implied): [F] [Dm] Gonna walk right up to him, [F] [Dm] Give Him a Great Big Kiss (Mmwaah!)

^FTell him that I love him, ^FTell him that I care, ^FTell him that I'll always be there,

(Spoken over drums and bass): (Sisters): What color are his eyes? (Mary): I dunno, he's always wearing shades. (Sisters): Is he tall? (Mary): Well, I gotta look up. (Sisters): Yeah, well I hear he's bad! (Mary): Mmmm, he's good bad, but he's not evil.

^FTell me more, te^Dmll me more, Verse II:

Big [mumble something] (Tell me more) To match his eyes, (Tell me more) Dirty fingernails, (Tell me more) Oh boy! What a prize, (Tell me more) Tight kahki pants, High button shoes, He's always lookin', like-a he got the blues, Repeat chorus. (Spoken over F Dm] (Sisters): Is he a good dancer? (Mary): Waddya mean, is he a good dancer? (Sisters): Well, how does he dance? (Mary, loses Queens accent): Close, very, very, close... Tab/Chord interpretation by Craig Carlson Notes: I just could not get that line in the second verse. It *sounds* kinda like "Big broken suede", but I don't know how broken suede would match his eyes.
