words and music: Ed & Patsy bruce and Ron Peterson 
 
D              G              D
There was only me and her and him 
                                                       A
The bar was giving last call, so I thought I?d move on in 
D               G                      D
And I was slick and feeling like a man 
     G
So I took the stool between ?em 
                                          A       D
And ordered one more round for me and her and him  
            Gm                             D
I placed my arm across the back of her bar stool 
              G
And I don?t remember what I said 
                            A
But at the time, it sounded cool 
                                                 D
She pushed her drink away and never looked at me  

She just paid her tab tipped the man 
                                A
And left me sitting there alone with him 
                                                A
Chorus: And he said, ?There?s girls and there?s women and there?s  
  D
laies 
        G                 A                D
There?s yeses and there?s no?s and there?s maybes 
       G            A                   D
There?s teasing and pleasing they start learning when they?re  
G
 babies 
        A                                 D
There?s girls , there?s women and there?s ladies? 
             D        
Well, he pushed his old straw hat back and he grinned 
             G
And he said, ?Ain?t they all a mystery? 
              A                   D                    G
Sonny, it?s a sin but they?re all sitting on the world we?re  

trying to win 
            G
Ah, but you know I love a mystery 
                                        A      D
So let?s drink another round to you and me and them? 
 
Chorus: 
 
note: last line of  second chorus is ?I love all the girls, and women  

and the ladies?
