- Verse: -
B E
I met a pretty girl the next town over
B F#
Running like a river, thin and long
B
Other than her dress
E
She looked mighty well depressed
B F# B
So I asked this little lady what was wrong
B E
She said, "All my life I've tried to be an outlaw
B F#
I've tried to spit and chew and steal and rob
B
But I ain't no good at thieven'
E
So I might as well be leaven
B F# B
I think I'm off and go get a job"
B E
I told the pretty girl, "Don't be so foolish
B F#
Don't be so quick to leave a life of crime
B
See I'll be quick to call it
E
You can practice on my wallet
B F# B
And that way if you're caught you won't do time"
- Chorus -
F#
Just rob me!
B
Just rob me!
B F#
A pretty face like yours don't come for free
B
If I can call you honey
E
Well then you can take my money
B
So darling keep your gun
B
And just rob me
-(Drew's) Instrumental-
B E B E B
- Verse 2 -
B E
I saw that girl again a few months later
B F#
To see her with her gun was a relief
B
I said, "Honey you've got attributes
E
Like lace and lips and high heeled boots
B F# B
But Dearie your just no good as a thief"
B E
She said, "Mister how do you know that I'm failing
B F#
I might as well rob twenty banks today"
B
I looked into her eyes
E
And said, Missy, I'd be surprised,
B F# B
You're pointing that there gun the wrong way.
- Repeat Chorus -
- Bridge -
F# B
Maybe every woman is an outlaw
F# B
I'm pretty sure they're pretty thieves in black
F# (hold then break) F# (hold then break)
They'll make you scream like smoke
F# (hold then break)
And then they rob you broke
F# F# F#
But I suppose don't mind being robbed like that
- Verse 3 -
B E
So my pretty thief and I started a family
B F#
Yeah my outlaw's been giving me in laws ya'all
B
She kept her thieving art
E
Sure as rain she stole my heart
B B
she tells me it's for a worthy cause
- Second Chorus/Ending -
F#
Just rob me!
B
Just rob me!
B F#
Deep down my darling is a thief
B E
She may do the dishes but I pay her for my kisses
B
I know its not malicious
E
she�s just in the thieving business
B
She calls herself my missus
E
but she�s got me by the britches
B F#
I say darling keep your gun
B
And just rob me
