D5
Somebody's gotta crack a whip around here
D5 C5  G5
Who's minding the store?
Bb5
Shake it up sell some beer
                  C5
What's your money maker for?

D5
Pay day, we're packin' 'em in
D5      C5         G5
Six-gun annie and buffalo jill
Bb5           F5              C5     Bb5
But who's to say they'll be back again
C5       Bb5
For a refill?
F5                   Bb5     F5  Bb5  F5  Bb5
Honey, you know the drill

D5
Ain't no left turn down sleepy time street
             C5            G5
You gotta be fast but you gotta stay loose
Bb5
Thinking on your feet
               C5
Slick as grass through a goose

D5
We gotta rationalise
D5     C5       G5
The payroll is giving me chills

Honey, you know the drill

              C5               F5
Well they can all look down on sucker row
C5              F5
But they all forget
    C5                  F5
The tallest trees from acorns grow
Bb5                C5
Though they ain't yet
  C5                   F5
I never look down on a sucker stake
C5               F5
They all pay the bills
  C5                     F5
I never gave a sucker an even break
Bb5          C5
And I never will


D5
A beautiful vision keeps coming to me
D5 C5    G5
I see a miracle mile
Bb5
Flying in for free
        C5
Service with a smile

D5
High rollers, fancy hotels
         C5        G5
Big time singers, topping the bill
    Bb5           F5
You gotta have a feel
        C5          Bb5
For the stuff that sells

Call it a skill
F5                   Bb5   F5  Bb5  F5  Bb5
Honey, you know the drill

Somebody's gotta crack a whip around here

Who's minding the store?

Shake it up sell some beer
              C5
Money walking through the door
D5
Annie's arriving at a dangerous age
D5    C5      G5
Don't you go getting ill
Bb5          F5        C5      Bb5
Get another woman up in the cage
C5                  Bb5
Who ain't over the hill
F5                   Bb5   F5  Bb5  F5  Bb5
Honey, you know the drill
