3 4 4 -4 5

I walked down the street,


-4 4 -4 -3 3

like a good girl should.


3 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4

He followed me down the street,


5 -5 5 4 4

like I knew he would.


chorus:


6 6 6 4 4 -4 5 4 -4 5 -4 -3 3

Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be.


3 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5

So listen and I’ll tell you,


-5 -4 5 4 3 -3 4

what this fellow did to me.


verse 2:


I walked to my house,

like a good girl should.

He followed me to my house,

like I knew he would.


chorus:


4 -5 6 -6 -5 6 5 4

I never saw this boy before


4 -5 6 -6 -5 5 -5 6

so nothing could be sillier.


-5 -5 6 -6 -5 5 -5 6

At closer range his face was strange,


4 5 -4 -4 -4 -3 -4 3

But his manner was familiar.


verse 3:

So, I walked up the stairs,

like a good girl should.

He followed me up the stairs,

like I knew he would.


chorus:


verse 4:

I stopped at my door,

like a good girl should.

He stopped at my door,

like I knew he would.


chorus:


verse 5:

He asked me for a goodnight kiss,

I said it was still good day.

I would have told him more,

except his lips got in the way.


verse 6:

So I talked to my ma,

like a good girl should.

And Ma talked to Pa,

like I knew she would.


chorus:


verse 7:

And they all agreed,

on a married life for me.

The guy is a guy,

wherever he may be.


verse 8:

So I walked down the aisle,

like a good girl should.

He followed me down the aisle,

like I knew he would.


-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5

And now you’ve heard the story,


-4 -4 -5 5 4 -4 -3 4

of what that fellow did to me.


6 5 4 3 -4 4

That’s what he did to me.
