Call me a curmudgeon,
call me a nuisance
When I was a boy,

a hot dog cost a few cents
A jar of pickles cost a dollar and a half

Now I see a jar for ten,
don't make me laugh

How would I keep?
G#m
It's too quiet there,
B
how would I sleep?
G#m
Now don't get me started
on the guys with bushy beards
F#
That's a look that I find a little weird
Every guy's a mix
C#m

pants below their rears
Smile at the Muslim girls
F#m
C#m
and sweet young dears
F#
Try me one of them fancy beers
G#m
Say how are you to a passing lumberjack
F#
See if he might say how are you back

But I won't, won't, won't, won't,
G#m
G#sus4
