He's got quite a reputation, for making girlies fall,

When a fella gets a girlie, she only lasts one day,

He's no bluff, he treats the girls rough, his hugs and kisses scare 'em, he don't spare 'em,

They all sigh, for him they would die, He gets a girl on Sunday, leaves her Monday,

You should see his Hebrew harem, He wants them all, to sa-laam as he goes by,

Some girls even don't last one day. He takes them all to the swellest Cabarets,

Outtro:

Here’s the trick – start with Cdim at the second fret for four counts using a fan stroke, them move the diminished position to the 5th fret for four counts using a fan stroke, and then to the 8th fret, also for four counts with a fan. Then using the diminished position again for two counts each, using a triple stroke for each, play at the 9th fret, 8th fret, 7th fret and sixth. Then split stroke Ab7 for four counts ending on a triple ending with the downstroke on a G7 (same position, down a fret), and then another downstroke on C to finish.
