intro: C G C G-F C G Am
Hey man, I like your beard and I like the way you serve that beer
I like the way your daughter smiles at me
Hey mister, could I have just one more beer?
I got two big balls, a cap and a bat
And I play with them all of the time
I got a million things I'd rather do, if only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine, if only you say you'll stay mine
Yeah, this is the place where I live and the place where I love
Hey ma'amselle, fill up baby, I like the way you give me gas
Tell me, who is the man with the double barrelled gun? (my daddy)
I think I better move on fast
I got a big black car, a dog and a cat
And I play with them all of the time
I got a million things I'd rather do, if only you stay you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine, if only you stay you'll stay mine
Yeah, this is place where I live and the place where I love
The way the old church spire stabs the clouds
And when the old folks say, I'll have another drink to see
Me through the day, thank you JJ
Yeah, this is the place where I live and the place where I love
Hey, Mrs B, take a look at me, d'you really think I'm quite that bad?
Sometimes I say and do stupid things that only serve to make you sad
I got a motorcycle, an empty seat
And twenty years ahead of my time
I got a million things I'd rather do, if only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine, if only you say you'll stay mine
Yeah, this is the place where I live and the place where I love
C G C G-F C G Am until fade.
