You take the lady --- I'll take the lesson
                   G       A7            D
I can't say that anyone's --- Doin' me wrong
                 C   D                        G      C
Cause I always knew --- That the girl had a weakness

                C    D                    G       C
Now she was a child --- Back when I first met her
                 G        A7                 D
And the woman inside her --- Was just bein' born
                       C       D                    G   C
And I knew she'd come with me --- Cause she had a fever

Em                              A7                 Em
And the whistlers will whistle --- A tune she can dance to
                            A7                     Em
And jugglers will cheer her--- When she starts to cry
                          A7                  Em  A7  D
The singers will sing her --- A bed of red roses

                   G      A7                        D
And you'll never lose her -- To the handsome or strong
                 C        D                      G    C
But all of your life boy --- Watch over your shoulder

For whistlers and jugglers --- and singers of song
