Verse 1
(G major) Bedbuggin' mean and evil
don't (C major) mean me (G major) no good
Bedbuggin' (C major) mean and (Csus4) evil
don't mean (C major) me (G major) no good
Think he's (D major) a woodpecker,
my poor (C major) old body's a
piece (G major) of wood.
Bedbugs as big as a jackass
will bite (C major) you and stand (G major) an d grin.
Bedbugs as (C major) big as (Csus4) a jackass
(C major) will bite you and stand (G major) and grin.
You know they'll (D major) tell the other bedbugs
it's dinner (C major) time, better off (G major) again.
I go to bed at night
and I wonder (C major) how a poor boy can (G major) sleep
I go to bed (C major) at night
and I wonder how a poor (G major) boy can sleep
One is (D major) holding my hands
while the (C major) others is biting my (G major) feet
I pace the floor at night
and I'm so (C major) tired
I'm about to (G major) drop dead
I pay the (C major) floor at night,
I'm so tired
I'm about to (G major) drop dead
You know the (D major) damn little bed bugs
won't let (C major) me get into (G major) bed
Some of them were moanin'
in the corner
while I (C major) was (Csus2) try in' to (G major) sleep
Some of were (C major) moanin' in the corner
while I was tryin' (G major) to sleep
It was a (D major) bedrug mother praying line,
(C major) give my children more to (G major) eat.
I got myself a wishbone,
these (C major) bugs, they got (G major) my goat.
You know I got myself a (C major) wishbone,
these bugs, they got my (G major) goat.
You know, I (D major) wish every one of them
would cut (C major) their own goddamn (G major) throat. (C major)
(D major) (C major) (Csus2) (G major) (D major) (C major) (Csus4) (C major) (G major)
Bad, broken, mean and evil
Don't (C major) mean (G major) me no good
Bedbuggin' (C major) mean (Csus4) an d (C major) evil,
(Csus4) don't mean (C major) me no (G major) good
Think (D major) s he's a woodpecker,
my poor (C major) body's a piece of (G major) wood
