Verse 2
I (A major) left my wallet in (A minor) El Segundo
Left my (G major) wallet in (A major) El Segun (A minor) do
(A major) Left my wallet in (A minor) El Segundo
I gotta get, I got- (G major) got ta get it
Verse 3
My (A minor) mother went (G major) away for
a (A minor) month- long (G major) trip
(A minor) Her and some friends on
an ocean- liner (G major) ship
She made a big (A minor) mis take
by leaving me (G major) home
(A minor) I had to roam so I picked
up (G major) the phone
(A minor) Dialed Ali up to see what was going (G major) down
Told (A minor) him I pick him up so
we could drive (G major) around
(A minor) Took the Dodge (G major) Dart, a (A minor) (G major) '74
My mother (A major) left a yard (A minor) but
I needed one (G major) more
Shaheed had me (A major) covered with
a (A minor) hundred greenbacks
So we left Brooklyn and we made
big tracks
Drove down the Belt, got on the Conduit
Came to a toll,
we paid and went through it
Had no destina (G major) tion, we was (A minor) on a quest
(G major) Ali (A minor) laid in the back so he could get (G major) rest
(A minor) Drove down the road for
two- days- and- a- (G major) half
The (A minor) sun had just risen on a dusty path
(G major) Just (A minor) then a figure had caught my eye (G major)
A (A minor) man with a sombrero
who was four feet (G major) high
I pulled over to ask were we was at
His index (A minor) finger he tipped up his hat
"El Segundo," he said, "my name is (G major) Pedro
If (A minor) you need directions,
I'll tell you pron (G major) to"
Needed (A minor) civilization,
some sort of reserva (G major) tion
He (A minor) said a mile (G major) south,
there's a (A minor) fast food (G major) station
(A minor) Thanks, senor, as I start up the (G major) mo tor
Ali (A minor) said, "Damn,
tip, why you drive so (G major) far (A minor) (G major) (A minor) for?"
(Well describe (G major)
Verse 4
(A minor) (A major) to me (A minor) what
(G major) the (A minor) wallet
(G major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) looks
(G major) (A minor) (G major) like)
Verse 5
(A minor) Anyway (G major) a gas (A minor) station we passed (G major)
(A minor) We got (G major) gas (A minor) and went (G major) on to get (A minor) grub
It was a nice little (G major) pub in
the middle of nowhere
Anywhere would have been (A minor) better
I ordered enchil (G major) adas and I (A minor) ate 'em
Ali had the (G major) fruit punch
When we finished we thought
for ways to get back
(A minor) I had a (G major) hunch
(A minor) Ali said, "Pay for lunch"
So I (G major) did it
(A minor) Pulled out the wallet and I saw
this (G major) wicked (A minor) beautiful lady
She was a (G major) waitress there
(A minor) Put the (G major) wallet down (A minor)
and stared (G major) and stared
(A minor) To put me back into reality,
here's (G major) (A minor) Shaheed
"Yo, Tip, man, you got what you (G major) need?"
I (A minor) checked for keys and started to step
(G major) What do you know, my wallet I forget
Verse 6
(A minor) Yo, it was a (G major) brown wallet,
it had props (A minor) num bers
Had my jimmy (G major) hats I got
Verse 7
to get it man
(A minor) Lord, have mercy
The heat got hotter, Ali stars to curse (G major) me
I fell bad but he (A minor) makes
me feel badder
Chit- chit- chatter,
car stars to scatter
(G major) Breaking on out, we
was Northeast bound
Jettin' on down at the speed of sound
Three days coming and three more going
We get back and there
was no slack
490 Madison, we're here, (A minor)
(A major) (A minor) Sha
He said, "All right, (G major) Tip,
see you tomorrow"
Thinking (A minor) about the past week,
the last (G major) week
Hands go in my (A major) pocket, I can't (G major) speak
Hopped in the car and torpe'ed to the shack
Of Shaheed, "we gotta go
(A minor) back" (G major) when he said
"Why?" I said, "we gotta go
Cause I left my wallet in El (A major) Segundo"
Yeah, I left (G major) my wallet in El Segun
Verse 8
(A major) do
Left my wallet in (G major) El Segundo
Left (A major) my wallet in El Segundo
I gotta get, I got- got ta (G major) get it
Verse 9
Left (A major) my wallet in El Segundo
Left my wallet in El Segundo
Left my wallet in El Segundo
Come on let's go
