Easy Money (CHORDS) by Rickie Lee Jones
D D7
There was a Joe Leanin' on the back door
G G7
A couple Jills with their eyes on a couple bills
E7 A D
Their eyes was statin' They was waitin' To get their hands on some easy money
D D7
They flipped a dime,.. One said " well,.. I'll take heads this time"
G G7
One stepped up One stepped back One loosened her shoulder strap
E7 A7 D
She couldn't speak,.. Her knees got weak She could almost taste that easy money
D D7
There was this old black cat Sittin' in a old black Cadillac
G G7
The Joe smelled sweet She curled up at her boyfriend's feet
E7 A7 D
She said "I got a plan Listen,.. Sam,.. how'd ya like to make some easy money ..? "
B7 Em7
He say,.. "yes! oh yes! Jus' tell me what you want me to do "
E B7 E E7
She said,.. "Baby,.. you can trust me Baby,.. but you must be
A7 Em A7
hidin' in my room At a quarter to two"
D D7
Well,.. the cat told the boy "Come up to the room and play with my toy"
G G7
But the Jill set the bait And she wasn't gonna sit around and wait
E7 A7 D
But this guy was wise to all the lies And he flies out the door With the easy money
D D7
Well,.. the cat told the boy "Come up to the room and play with my toy"
G G7
But the Jill set the bait And she wasn't gonna sit around and wait
E7 A7
But this guy was wise to all the lies And he flies out the door With the easy money
D D7
Because there ain't no man Who got the money in his hand
G G7
Who got any of that bread Bein' slow in the head
E7 A7 D
The easier it looks The hotter it hooks There ain't no such thing as easy money
B7 Em7
We say,.. "yes! oh yes!"
E B7 E E7
A7 Em A7
D D7
Saturday night There was a terrible,.. terrible fight
G G7
Between two dames who was losin' the same game
E7 A7 D
It wasn't clear,.. But I hear somebody was lookin' for some easy money
