    G             D                    
I'm going down to Rose Marie's
C                  G
She never does me wrong.
G                 D
She puts it to me plain as day
C                         Am
 And gives it to me for a song.
       G               G7
It's a wicked life but what the hell
      C                  Am
[and] everybody's got to eat
        G                D
And I'm just the same as anyone else
                C                  Am
When it comes to scratching for my meals *)

G              C
Goin' to Acapulco
G            F
Goin' on the run.
G                      C
Goin' down to see soft gut
G                  Am
Goin' to have some fun.

Am------------------
Yeah


G                       C  G
Goin' to have some fun.

G              D
Now, whenever I get up
    C                 G
And can't find what I need,
G                      D
I just make it down to Rose Marie's
   C                       Am
and get something quick to eat.
     G                       G7
It's not a bad way to make a living
    C                   Am
And I ain't complainin' none.
    G                       D
For I can blow my plum and drink my rum
         C                      Am
And then go on home and have my fun

G              C
Goin' to Acapulco
G            F
Goin' on the run.
G                      C
Goin' down to see soft gut
G                  Am
Goin' to have some fun.

Am------------------
Yeah


G                       C  G
Goin' to have some fun.

G                      D
Now, if someone offers me a joke
C             G
I just say no thanks.
  G              D
I try to tell it like it is
    C              Am
And keep away from pranks.
     G                            G7
Now, everytime, you know, when the well breaks down
  C                  Am
I just go pump on it some.
G               D
Rose Marie, she likes to go to big places
C                                    Am
And just sit there waitin' for me to come.


G              C
Goin' to Acapulco
G            F
Goin' on the run.
G                      C
Goin' down to see soft gut
G                  Am
Goin' to have some fun.
