This song was a hit in summer of 1999.
We played that song at the wellfare-party of our annual in 1999.
It was great fun. Hope you enjoy. Anyway I'm not sure about the lyrics.
A former class-mate took the maxi-CD from me and now I can't retry.
Hope you don't mind.

1st verse
Bmaj (x2444x@1)         G (320003@1)      A (x02220@1)
Hanging 'round downtown by myself
Bmaj
and I got so much time
G (320003@1)                    Ato (x02220@1)sit and think about myself
Bmaj
and there she was
G (320003@1)         Alike (x02220@1)double cherry-pie
Bmaj
yeah, there she was
G (320003@1)              F#like (244322@1)disco super-fly.

As a hint you can also play the slide part in the chorus as a single note riff.
Let the good times roll.
