(C)
In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
Verse 1:
(C)
Now my girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
[45: See LP: Watch] my daddy in bed a-dying
See his hair a turning grey
He's been working and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah!) Every night and day
He's been work, work, work, work
(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Chorus:
F Bb C
We gotta get out of this place
F G C
If it's the last thing we ever do
F Bb C
We gotta get out of this place
Dm
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
F Eb Bb C [4X]
1: You know it babe and I know it too
2: Somewhere baby, somehow I know it
Verse 2:
(C)
My little girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
[1: Your gonna die 2: You'll be dead] before your time is due
[45: See LP: Watch] my daddy in bed a-dying
See his hair a turning grey
He's been working and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah!) Every day baby
(Yeah!) Whoa!
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
[repeat chorus to fade]
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ANIMALS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
