Verse 1 (continue w/intro riff):

You got your head on backwards, baby, you don't know where you're at

Got your head on backwards, baby, watch out or you'll fall flat

Yeah, instead of sayin' "hi" to the people that you meet

[N.C.]

You oughta say "goodbye" as you're walkin' down the street

Chorus:

C7

You got your head on backwards, baby

G7

And you're gonna hit the ground, yeah

D7

Well, when you finally fall down, baby

C7 G7 D7

I don't want to be around

[harmonica solo over intro riff, 6X]

Verse 2:

Well, people been askin' me what's wrong with you

Uh, they can't understand all them crazy things you do

I got something to say and I'm sayin' it out loud

You better shape up, baby, and get down off of your cloud

[repeat chorus]

[harmonica solo over intro riff, 8X]

Verse 3:

Well, you sure look funny, girl, you're sure lookin' strange

You can't stay this way, no, you just gotta change

The way you're walkin', talkin', it ain't lookin' right

The way that you been actin' is too far out of sight

Coda (rant to fade over intro riff):

Yeah, baby, you got your head on backwards... yeah

You don't know what's happenin', uh-uh

Man, you're wrong... you're dead wrong, you know why

'Cause your head's on backwards...
