G5       C5                             G5          C5
Get back on track, pick me up some bottles of booze
G5                 C5                         G5     C5
Fickle freshman probably thinks he's cooler than you
    G5                C5                 G5      C5
A hay ride, a fire, everybody's coming around
     G5         C5                           G5      C5
So go press your skirt, word is there's a new girl in town
G5                C5                    G5        C5
I call shotgun, you can play your R 'n' B tunes
        G5             C5                     G5      C5
The fellowship time, it always comes a little too soon
        G5        C5                              G5         C5
The land of the creeps freshened up and baby faced shaved
      G5                   C5                   G5             C5
Put your eyes on me and I know a place where we can get away
   G5             C5                                G5           C5
Just say I want you, just exactly like I used to
  G5     C5                        G5        C5
'Cause baby this is o-nly bringing me down

(Same pattern throughout the rest of the song)

Homeboy's so proud, he finally got the video proof

The night vision shows she was only ducking the truth

It's heavy I know, the black eye with the gift down below

A choke and a gag, she spit up and came back for more

And said I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down

She said I want you

I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down

I said I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down
