Dan Hicks - Milk Shakin Mama guitar chord

B C B C

I sat down at the counter, with my menu in my hand,

B C C7

When I saw what was behind it, I hit a grand slam

F F,E,F

I saw my milk shakin momma

C C,B,C

Saw my soda jerkin baby

G G,F#,F

I saw the girl that keeps the ice cream

C

And I just had to scream for her

C

She said"what will you have sir" and "what flavor would you like"?

C

And just the way she said it got me higher than a kite

***chorus***

F

Raspberry strawberry lemon or fudge

C

Even some spumoni couldn't make me budge

F

Marishino cherry, sittin on top

C

Bananas and some whipped cream couldn't get me from that shop

F

And then I had a root beer

C

As I paid my check I wondered if'n she'd ever call me dear

G

She's the girl that keeps the ice cream

F C

And I just had to scream for her

***Instrumental***

C

Luckily I hung around until she got off work

C

Later we got married and had a bunch of little jerks

C

That's my milk shakin momma, my soda jerking baby

C

She's the girl that keeps the ice cream, and I just had to scream

for her

C,A7 F, F# C A

Next time you're hungry, take my advice

D7 G C

Try the soda fountain, it could be just as nice

C7

It could be just as nice.
