Verse 1:

       C5
Well I met her on the corner of broadway
                              F5
Said she seen me coming for a mile
                                      C5
Guess I should have known she was trouble
         C5            G5
By the hoodwink in her eye
             C5
She said now watch my hands real careful
                                     F5
But I should have been watching her feet
                                     C5
Cause before I knew it, she stole my heart and my wallet
     G5                   C5         C5
Went running on down the street.


Chorus:

    F5
The greatest hustler of all
 C5
Stands about four foot nine
 G5
Made to be a moocher

Low down hoochie-coocher
                        C5
Daddy made her walk the line
F5
Hustles with the greatest of ease
C5
Fools any boy any time
    F5                    C5
The greatest hustler, in all of this world
             F5        C5
Hustled this heart of mine


Verse 2:
              C5
Now I've been hustled on the streets of Chicago
                        F5
And the levees of New Orleans
                                     C5
But I never knew a woman to work so fast
                 C5              G5
She's what you'd call a hustling queen
      C5
And I took her to the fair on Friday
                                F5
And we stepped into the kissing booth
                        C5
I puckered my lips, the steal me a kiss
                   G5       C5      C5
She went and stole my gold tooth

Verse 3:
     C5
Well if you see her coming this way boys better take care
                                             F5
Cause she'll hustle your heart away into the air
   C5
So fellas if your down on the corner
                       F5
She's not that hard to find
                              C5
She's the greatest hustler in all of this world
                 G5         C5     C5
She stands about four foot nine


Chorus

    F5                   C5
The greatest hustler in all of this world
                   F5        C5
Been hustling this heart of mine



Hope that's about right,
