Well, my (G7) pretty little one, how has it (Em7)all begun?
They're (G7)teaching you how to walk, but baby, you're (Em7)already on the run
Little (C7)one, what you (G7)gonna do?
Little (C7)one, honey, it's (D7)all up to you
Now your (G7)daddy's in the den shootin' up the (Em7)evening news
(G7)Mama's with a friend, lately she's (Em7)been so confused
Little (C7)one, come on and (G7)take my hand
Well, I (C7)may not have the answer but I be-(D7)lieve I got a plan
(Chorus)
Honey, you (C7)shake, I'll rattle, we'll (G7)roll on down the line
(D7)See if we can't get in touch with a (G7)very close friend of mine
But let me (C7) clue you in, it ain't like him to (G7)argue or pretend

Well, they've (G7)got a little list of all those things of (Em7)which they don't approve
Well, (G7)they've got to keep their eyes on you 'cause (Em7)you might make your move
Yeah little (C7)one, I really (G7)wish you would
Little (C7)one, I think the (D7)damage would do you (G7)good
(Chorus)
Well honey, you (C7)shake, I'll rattle, we'll (G7)roll on down the line
We're (D7)gonna forget all about the battle, it's gonna (G7)feel so fine
'Cause he's the (C7)missing link, the kitchen sink, e-(G7)leven on a scale of ten
Well (D7)honey, let me introduce you to my (C7)redneck friend

Well honey, you (C7)|shake, I'll rattle, we'll (G7)|roll on down the line
I'm gonna (D7)try to swing you up into my saddle, then we'll (G7)run but you'll feel like you're flyin'
Well, (C7)don't stand there, just look at that, this (G7)dream ain't gonna end
