A                  C/A
Hey baby, what you gonna do
G/A                A
When the lights go up on you ?
                        C/A
What's your name, can I drive you home ?
G/A                 A
Sweet woman, are you all alone?

D
You're the one for me
                                         A
I'm going to keep you busy as a bee could
               E D A
be, could be, woo

Chorus:
A                 E D   E D        E
Rat bat bat bat blue woo rat bat blue
 D        E D
Rat bat blue ah

Now, get up woman, don't be slow
It's getting late and I wanna go
No cause for acting big
Got to love, got to live

Stick around with me
I'm going to show you things you
never thought you'd see
You see woo

Chorus

Get out, you didn't understand
I'm a hard loving man
No way you can satisfy
The way you look, the way you lie

And when you shut the door
Make sure I don't see
you around here no more

Ooh, rat bat-bat-bat blue
Rat bat blue
Rat bat blue
All right
Rat bat blue.
