Squeeze Box
(Monty Criswell/Michael White)
 
[Intro]
A D A E A
 
A                          E
I'm slippin' into Slidell, the boys and me                             
                                     A
Take a left at the Texaco, gonna see Sweet Marie
                                       E
She plays down at Jimbeaux's Gumbo and Washtub
                                            A
In calico and barefeet in a band called the Mudbugs
F#m                             D
I been workin' up my nerve and I can hardly wait
E
Tonight when she asks for request
 
I'll stand up and say
 
[Chorus]
A
I wanna be your squeeze box
               E
Always at your fingertips
 
I wanna be your blues harp
                A
A little closer to your lips
 
Let me be your washboard
                D
You can play me fast or slow
A
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby
E                A
Anything you can hold
 
A D A E A
 
A                                            E
Got a bucket full of crawfish, a seat on the front row
                                                   A
Just to sit this close to her, it's like a shot of tabasco
                                             E
Makin' trips to the tip jar, keep it full of dollar bills
                                              A
Tonight I'm gonna go for broke, show her just how I feel
F#m                             D
One way or another, Lord, she's gonna notice me
E
If I have to jump up on that stage and get down on my knees
 
I'll be beggin her please
               A
Let me be your squeeze box
                E
Always at your fingertips
 
I wanna be your blues harp
                A
A little closer to your lips
 
Let me be your washboard
                D
You can play me fast or slow
A
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby
E                A
Anything you can hold
A            A           A          A
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard, baby
E                A
Anything you can hold
 
 
A E A E A fade out
