Em          Am

Well, she's 30 in the bust, 24 in the waist,

44 in the hips, man, she got what it takes!

 

CHORUS:

      Dm             Am

You upset me, baby; yes, you upset me, baby.

           Em                  Dm                     Am

Like being hit by a falling tree.  Woman, what you do to me?

 

She's not too tall, her complexion is fair.

Man, she knocks me out, the way she wears her hair!

 

CHORUS:

 

It's hard to describe her -- it's hard to start.

I better stop now, I got a very weak heart.

 

CHORUS:

 

INSTRUMENTAL SOLO:

 

Yeah, it's hard to describe her -- it's hard to start.

I better stop now, I got a very weak heart.
