 A                                 
 Weird goings-on at the County Jail
 The door flies open, in strides Geek
 
 G                      D             A 
 Prisoners reading the sheriff's mail 
 Looking like the front page of Newsweek
 
 A                                   
 He's strapped down to a swivel chair
 He says to Lou in a voice of glee,
 
 G                      D            A 
 trying to swivel right out of there 
 'What's the matter, ain't you glad to see me?'
 
 E                             
 Pin-striped Sweet's in Cell 15
 Lou's on the floor 'cause he can't stand up
 
 G              D                A   
  Convinced his self it's all a dream
 as green as a leaf in a tea-cup
 
 E                             
 He's got a pet black tabby cat
 When on to Geek's back jumps a Stetson-hatted cat
 
 G               D                       A  
  that carries a gun and wears a Stetson hat
 Which breaks Geek's neck like he was a rat
