INTRO:

VERSE 1:

D
Tulane and Johnny opened a novelty shop
D
Back under the counter was the cream of the crop
G
Everything was clickin? and the business was good
     D
Till one day, lo behold, an officer stood
A                                G
Johnny jumped the counter but he stumbled and fell
D                                     G
Tulane made it over Johnny just as he yelled

CHORUS:

   D
Go head on, Tulane, he can?t catch up with you
D
Go Tulane, he ain?t man enough for you
G
Go Tulane, use all the speed you got
D
Go Tulane, you know you need a lot
A               G        
Go Tulane, he?s laggin? behind
            D       G
Go head on, Tulane, go head on

VERSE 2:

D
Go by your father?s house and tell him business is slow
D
And see if he will loan you something, soon you?ll get the dough
G
Put the cat out in the hall and rumple up the room
   D
Go by Doctor Keller an' tell him you swallowed some perfume
A                                      G
Tell him we need him quick ?cause he may have to testify
D                                                G
That you been sick all day, and that?s a perfect alibi

CHORUS:

   D
Go head on, Tulane, he can?t catch up with you
D
Go Tulane, he ain?t man enough for you
G
Go Tulane, use all the speed you got
D
Go Tulane, you know you need a lot
A               G        
Go Tulane, he?s laggin? behind
            D       G
Go head on, Tulane, go head on

VERSE 3:

D
Go, let Daddy drive, in case you run into the man,
D
Back by the shop and get the stuff and hide it in the van
G
Go back by your father?s, get the money for the bail
D
And bring it down and bail me out this rotten, funky jail
A                            G
We gotta get a lawyer in the clique of politics
D                                          G
Somebody who can win the thing or get this thing fixed

CHORUS:

   D
Go head on, Tulane, he can?t catch up with you
D
Go Tulane, he ain?t man enough for you
G
Go Tulane, use all the speed you got
D
Go Tulane, you know you need a lot
A               G        
Go Tulane, he?s laggin? behind

Go head on, Tulane, go head on
