Gm Gm C C
I was walkin' down the street

Gm Gm C C
Concentratin' on truckin' right

Gm Gm C C
I heard a dark voice beside of me

Gm Gm C C
And I looked 'round in a state of fright

Gm Gm
I saw four faces one mad

A A brother from the gutter

Gm Gm
They looked me up and down a bit

'Cause you ain't heard me out yet

Gm Gm C C
Well he looked down at my silver chain

Gm Gm C C
He said I'll give you one dollar

Gm Gm C C
I said you've got to be jokin' man

Gm Gm C C
It was a present from me mother


Gm Gm
He said I like it I want it

C C
I'll take it off your hands

Gm Gm
And you'll be sorry you crossed me

C C Gm Gm D D C C
You'd better understand that you're alone

Gm Gm D D C C
A A long way from home
And I say

I hurried back the swimmin' pool

Gm Gm C C
Sinkin' pina coladas

Gm Gm C C
I heard a dark voice beside me say

Gm Gm C C
Would you like something harder

Gm Gm
She said I've got it you want it

C C
My harvest is the best

Gm Gm
And if you try it you'll like it

C C Gm Gm, D D, C C
And wallow in a Dreadlock Holiday
And I say
