E                               
I'm all strung-out, and, my money's spent 
A 
Can't really tell ya' where last year went 
                              D 
But, I've given up paying my bills for Lent 
G            E                   B 
My landlord, he says he wants his rent 
         A 
Fuck 'em! 

A                              E  
Hey, now, the women they come, the women they go 
                                  A  
The hens start to cackle when the cock starts to crow 
A                                 Dm 
Hell, I take 'em in when the warm winds blow 
E Em  E                            A 
But, I boot 'em in the ass once it starts to snow 
E                   A 
Cause, fuuuuuuuuuck them! 

A                                  F#                    E                                
Yeah, got a letter from my folks, and, they say they're in debt 
E                                          A 
They say that things are as bad as they can possibly get 
F#m        Am                       Dm  
Y'know, I haven't answered that letter yet 
Dm                E 
I might use it to light my cigarette 
                    A 
Cause, fuuuuuuuuuck them! 
A      
What'd they ever do for me anyway? 
E                      Em                     E   
Threw me outta the house when I was twenty-nine years old 
E 
And cut off my allowance 
A 
Fuck 'em! 

E                             E 
Hey, a woman come around and handed me a line 
F#m              E                       A 
About a lot of little orphan kids sufferin' and dyin' 
D                                  G              E 
Shit, I give her a quarter, cause one of 'em might be mine 
E                                         
Yeah, the rest of those bastards can keep right on cryin' 
        A 
I mean, fuuuck kids! 
                 E 
Throw up on your shoulder, piss in your lap, Never give you nothing 
A 
Fuck 'em! 


A                              F#m       E 
I had a fight last night with a big lumberjack 
E                                A 
I spent most the fight laying flat on my back 
                                         D 
You know he beat me up fair, and, that's a fact 
               E                  B        E 
But, I busted his head as soon as he turned his back 
E                       A 
Cause, fuuuuuuuuuck "fair fighting"! 

E            A                       F            E 
Yeaaaaaah, y'know, my junkie buddy got the shakes again 
A 
He give me five bucks in the autumn rain 
                                            D 
I'm supposed to bring back something to kill his pain, 
    Dm         G              E 
heh, hehAw, shit! I took the bread and I jumped on a train' 
E                   A 
Cause, fuuuuuuuuuck junkies! 
          E       
Menace to society, break into your house, steal your TV set And go pawn it, and stick up gas stations, 
                               A 
then wanna get rehabilitated right next-door to you 
 A  
Fuck them! 

               G        E  
Hey, I caught a cold, I'm chilled and wet 
                                       B 
And, I'm coughing blood, and I'm short of breath 
       F                             B 
And at the foot of my bed sits Old Man Death 

He says: " Hey Shel, " he says, " ain't you ready to go yet? "And, I says... " You're the Devil's 
favorite pet! " And, I says..."He's waitin' for ya...And, you're late..."And I says: 

F                   A#             F                                                             F 
"FUUUUUUUUUCK HIM! LET THE MOTHER WAIT! I GOT THINGS I AIN'T DONE YET, AND BILLS I HAVEN'T NOT PAID! 
I GOT PEOPLE I AIN'T FUCKED UP, AN' I GOT CHICKS THAT I HAVEN'T KNOCKED UP AND LEFT YET! 
  A#                        F            A#             F 
 I'VE GOT things TO DO...PLACES T' GO.... PEOPLE T' DO!HA HA-HA-HA!..." 
How's that?
