verse 1 
A                             G 
Don't look at me, don't touch me 
          A             G 
Keep your mind straight ahead 
A                           G 
Don't get no funny ideas about me 
A                    G 
Or you'll wish that you were dead 
A                        G 
That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking 
A               G 
The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night 
A                             G 
She gives me a look from the corner of her eye 
A                  G 
That says, "Boy, keep acting right." 
A                  G 
How surprised was I 
B                                        B 
When she leaned over and whispered in my ear 

A             G 
Get a leg up  (ah, ah) 
A          G 
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah) 
A         G 
Get a leg up 
A                         G 
What's the matter are you shy, shy, shy?
 

verse 2 
A                          G 
I'm pretty good with first impressions 
A                         G 
But sometimes I'm not always right 
A                      G 
I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road 
A                   G 
To see what she had in mind 
A                    G 
Want me to spend the night 
A                     G 
Hey lover boy you know I will 
A                     G 
And my best girlfriend down the road 
A                 G 
Together we will thrill ya 
B 
And I'm thining to myself 
B 
I could be lucky Pierre tonight 

A             G 
Get a leg up  (ah, ah) 
A          G 
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah) 
A         G 
Get a leg up 
A                         G 
What's the matter are you shy, shy, shy?
 

Solo 
A   G 

verse 3 
A                     G 
The rest of the night went on and on 
A                   G 
And the moral to this song 
A                       G 
Don't go making hasty judgments 
A                                G 
Because sometimes they could be wrong 
A                         G 
Nothing wrong with a good time 
A                       G 
Just keep yourself protected, make a list 
A                                         G 
And you can bet your life that the women don't know 
A                  G 
The little girls are acting like this 
B 
So the next time a young one moves up 
B 
And she whispers in your ear 

A             G 
Get a leg up  (ah, ah) 
A          G 
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah) 
A         G 
Get a leg up 
A                         G 
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy? 
A             G 
Get a leg up  (ah, ah) 
A          G 
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah) 
A         G 
Now you know I ain't handsome 
A                         G 
But you know I aint shy, shy, shy 
A             G 
Get a leg up  (ah, ah) 
A          G 
Get a leg over boy  (yeah, yeah) 
A         G 
Get a leg up 
A                         G 
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy?
