Gimme red lipstick and a bright purple rouge
              G5                          C5
A shingle bob haircut and a shot of good booze
                  F5                        C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' your horn

If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone

Now, I'm raring to go, got red shoes on my feet
                   G5                      C5
My mind is sittin' right for a Tin Lizzie seat
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn

If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone

I'd like to fashion shop, and get the one looks best.

Your sister sweet mama wants a brand new dress.
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn

If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



                F5                   C5      
Dress skirt cut high, then they cut low
                  G5                          C5
Don't think I'm a sport, keep on watchin' me go
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn

The red rooster said, "Cockle-doodle-do-do"
                     G5                    C5
The Richard's' woman said, "Any dude will do"
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn

             F5                               C5
Every Sunday mornin', church people watch me go
                  G5                             C5
My wings sprouted out, and the preacher told me so
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn

With rosy red garters, pink hose on my feet
           G5                      C5
Turkey red bloomer, with a rumble seat
                  F5                       C5
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
                G5                        C5
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone
