Just Rob Me Lyrics

Fiction Family - Jon Foreman
First time transcribing chords not sure if this is 100% or not
- Verse: -
I met a pretty girl the next town over
Running like a river, thin and long
Other than her dress
She looked mighty well depressed
So I asked this little lady what was wrong
She said, "All my life I've tried to be an outlaw
I've tried to spit and chew and steal and rob
But I ain't no good at thieven'
So I might as well be leaven
I think I'm off and go get a job"
I told the pretty girl, "Don't be so foolish
Don't be so quick to leave a life of crime
See I'll be quick to call it
You can practice on my wallet
And that way if you're caught you won't do time"
- Chorus -
Just rob me!
Just rob me!
A pretty face like yours don't come for free
If I can call you honey
Well then you can take my money
So darling keep your gun
And just rob me
-(Drew's) Instrumental-
- Verse 2 -
I saw that girl again a few months later
To see her with her gun was a relief
I said, "Honey you've got attributes
Like lace and lips and high heeled boots
But Dearie your just no good as a thief"
She said, "Mister how do you know that I'm failing
I might as well rob twenty banks today"
I looked into her eyes
And said, Missy, I'd be surprised,
You're pointing that there gun the wrong way.
- Repeat Chorus -
- Bridge -
Maybe every woman is an outlaw
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
But I suppose don't mind being robbed like that
- Verse 3 -
So my pretty thief and I started a family
Yeah my outlaw's been giving me in laws ya'all
She kept her thieving art
Sure as rain she stole my heart
she tells me it's for a worthy cause
- Second Chorus/Ending -
Just rob me!
Just rob me!
Deep down my darling is a thief
She may do the dishes but I pay her for my kisses
I know its not malicious
she's just in the thieving business
She calls herself my missus
but she's got me by the britches
I say darling keep your gun
And just rob me
