Big Ten Inch

Words & Music:

Fred Weismantel

 

Yep.  This is everyone's favorite "naughty song" covered by Aerosmith on their 1975 album Toys In The Attic.  It originally dates from the 1930s and Steven Tyler chose for a cover after hearing it on a Dr. Demento tape that a friend had given him.

 

D7                          A7

Got me the strangest woman; believe it, this chick's no cinch.

D7                                E7

But I really get her goin' when I get out my big ten-inch...

 

CHORUS:

              D7

Record of the band that plays the blues.

          A7

Well, the band that plays the blues.

Bm7               E7                                  A

She just loved my big ten-inch record of her favorite blues.

 

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE:

 

Last night I tried to tease her.  I gave my love a little pinch.

But she said, "Now, stop that jivin' & whip out your big ten-inch..."

 

CHORUS:

 

I'll cover her with kisses and when we're in a lover's clinch.

She gets all excited when she puts on my big ten-inch.

 

CHORUS:

 

My gal don't go smokin' and liquor just makes her flinch.

Seems she don't go for nothin' 'cept for my big ten-inch.

 

CHORUS:

 

 

Bryson Meunier has this tab for the solo from the Aerosmith cover:
