Chords
C E7
Dennis is a menace with his 'anyone for tennis?'
Am C7
and beseeching me to come and keep the score
F Fm
And Maude says 'Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored.'
C Am D7 G7
And I really can't stand it anymore
C E7
I'm going out to dinner with a gorgeous singer
Am C7
to a little place I found down by the quay
F Fm
her name is Patricia, she calls herself Delicia
C Am D7 G7
and the reason isn't very hard to see
C E7
She says God made her a sinner just to keep fat men thinner
Am C7
as they tumble down in heaps before her feet
F Fm
They hang around in groups like battle weary troops
C Am D7 G7
one can often see them queue right down the street
F E7
You see Patricia (or Delicia) not only is a singer
Am D7 G7
she also removes all her clothing for
F G C F C G7
Patricia is the best stripper in town
Chorus
C A7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip
Dm G7
to tremendous applause she took off her drawers
C A7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all the clips
Am G
threw it all in the air and everyone stared
F E7
and as the last piece of clothing fell to the floor
C A7
the police were banging on the door
Dm G C F C G7
on a saturday night in nineteen twentyfour
Take it away boys
(Instrumental. Repeat the chorus)
C E7
But poor Patricia was arrested and everyone detested
Am C7
the manner in which she was exposed
F Fm
later on in court well everybody thought
C Am D7 G7
a summer run in jail would be proposed
F E7
But the judge said 'Patricia, or may I say Delicia,
Am D7 G7
the facts of this case lie before me case dismissed
F G C F C G7
this girl was in her working clothes
Chorus
C A7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip
Dm G7
to tremendous applause she took off her drawers
C A7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all the clips
Am G
threw it all in the air and everyone stared
F E7
and as the last piece of clothing fell to the floor
C A7
the police were yelling out for more
Dm G7 C C7 A7
on a saturday night in nineteen twentyfour
Dm G7 C C7 F Fm G7
on a saturday night in nineteen twentyfour
C7
Oh yeah
