Drove a big, long Cadillac (G major) limousine

dollars in the slot machine
(G major) And the boys in the back was
a-dealing seven (C major) seven cards
I sat down and won me a (G major) hundred and ten
Oh, I was raking in chips like
(F major) Grant took (D major) Richmond
Till big Johnny Lee came a-strolling in
(G major) in
And he ripped off the table like a (C major) 707
Pretty soon he done won all of my (G major) bread
I accused him of cheating,
he reached (D major) for a pistol
I grabbed a chair and I went
upside of his (G major) head
Then I took off and running
like a motorcycle (C major)
I heard the bullets whining
in the sirens (G major) wail
But it took half the cops
in Dallas (D major) County
Just to put one coon ass boy in (G major) jail (B flat major) (G major)
So call up (D major) Trudy on (C major) the
