	Four star restaurant's dinin' in the shade
                        E
	Well then your miniskirt'll hit the dirt
			           B   C#m
	And baby you'll be cryin' 'n' bleedin'
                              B     A
	You'll bite the hand that's feedin'
	                       C#m  B
	And then you're back there pleadin' for your soul
