Am C G (x6, bass enters 3rd time)
[Am]Big girl in the red dress, she's just [C]trying to imp[G]ress us
And she's [Am]got the barley fever, but she [C]doesn't make a s[G]ound
She's just [Am]hanging around [C]..[G]. She's just [Am]hanging around[C][G]
[Am]Down the Court Road early, with the [C]hustlers big and bur[G]ly
There's a [Am]million of them selling and the [C]buyers can't be [G]found
They're just [Am]hanging around [C]..[G]. they're just [Am]hanging around[C][G]

[Am]One of them comes closer, he's got a [C]monkey on his [G]shoulder
And the [Am]monkey's getting grinner, but his [C]eyes are on the [G]ground
He's just [Am]hanging around [C]..[G]. he's just [Am]hanging around[C][G]
I'm [Am]moving in the Coleherne with the [C]leather all a[G]round me
And the [Am]sweat is getting steamy but their [C]eyes are on the [G]ground
They're just [Am]hanging around [C]..[G]. they're just [Am]hanging around[C][G]
