Howd You Get This Number

	  		 
 
Intro: A (see tab below song) 
 
A 
Sorry 'bout your mama, sorry 'bout your pa 
A 
Sorry about the business with your brother-in-law 
A 
Hard cheese about the money man, hard cheese about the stocks 
A 
Hard cheese about you being up to your ears in hock 
A 
Tough luck about your luggage, tough luck about your socks 
A 
Tough luck about the way that the other shoe drops 
D 
Too bad about your girlfriend, too bad about your wife 
A 
Too bad about the thing you call the rest of your life 
 
     D 
Hey, how'd you get this number man - who do you think you're talking to? 
 
A 
Now who do you think you are kidding, what do you want me to do? 
D 
How'd you get this number man, please don't make me laugh 
             E 
You know you ought to be on TV with a line like that 
 
A 
I heard about the car rent, I heard about the fail 
A 
I heard about the time you was in jail all night 
A 
I know you don't like trouble and I know you don't like to fight 
A 
I know that you could argue with a fence post all night 
A 
I heard about the lampshade, how you had it on your head 
A 
I heard you told a joke and knocked the whole room dead 
D 
No kidding about the car sir, no kidding about the junk 
A 
No kidding about you being in a deep blue funk 
 
     D 
Hey, how'd you get this number man - who do you think you're talking to? 
 
A 
Now who do you think you are kidding, what do you want me to do?

You ought to be on TV with a line like that
