I'm not positive about the chords during the chorus, if anyone has a better idea, please post. 

          G
I'm goin' down 2 Alphabet Street 
          C
I'm gonna crown the first girl that I meet 
          A                    D
I'm gonna talk so sexy, she'll want me from my head 2 my feet 

CHORUS
Gm    F    C
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Gm    F    C
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Gm    F    C
Yeah Yeah Yeah

I'm gonna drive my daddy's Thunderbird
A white rad ride, '66 [?67] so glam - it's absurd 
I'm gonna put her in the back seat and drive her? 2 Tennessee 

Chorus

(This part has a bit of a rap to it:)
Excuse me, baby
I don't mean 2 be rude
But I guess tonight I'm just not, I'm just not in the mood
So if U don't mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I would like to...watch

Chorus

Well oh well, down, down, down, if that's the only way
To make this cruel, cruel world hear what we've got to say
Put the right letters together... and make a better day

Chorus

Maybe it's the only way
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cat, we need U 2 rap
Cat, we need U 2 rap
Don't give 2 us slow
Cause we know U know
New Power Soul
Gotta gotta gotta go!

Same pattern during Cat?s rap:
Talk 2 me lover
Come on tell me what U taste
Didn't your mama tell U life is too good to waste?

Didn't she tell U
That Lovesexy was the glam of them all?
If U can hang, U can trip on it

U surely won't fall (Put your love down)
No side effects and
The feeling last 4-ever
Straight up - it tastes good
It makes U feel clever (Put your love down)
U kiss your enemies
Like U know U should
Then U jerk your body
Like a horny pony would (Put your love down)
U jerk your body like a horny pony would
Now run and tell your mama about that!

And while U're at it tell your papa about this

[Bridge: Dm6 - 10-x-9-10-10-10, strummed funky...]

Yeah-yeah

Put your love down there when u wanna get shot

No! (Yeah, yeah)

Put your love down there when u wanna get shot
Put your love down there when u wanna get shot
Put your love down there when u wanna get shot

Put your love down there...

Get home, Alphabet Street
No!
L-L-L-L-Lovesexy

Yea, Oh, Alphabet Street
Yea, Oh, Alphabet Street

A B C D E F H I love U
