[Verse 1]
C7
You're hot as a desert, hell in a sheet
C7
Home's anywhere you lay your feet
Bb F C7
Your heart is full of tumbleweed and brimstone
C7
Whisper in your whiskey late at night
C7
You might fool an untrained eye
Bb F C7
But I know what you need, someone to depend on
[Chorus]
C
Hey, I can be tender I can be sweet
C
I can sweep the Devil off his red hot feet
F Bb C
Oh, I do love dancin' down a hardwood hall
C
Hey I'll be a huckleberry hell cat too
C
Run a 100 miles backward in them boots
Bb F C
When your tough gets tired baby, give me a call
Bb F C
See, I can tell by the way you walk you're ready to fall
[Verse 2]
C7
Hard like a hammer fit like a glove
C7
47 different shades of love
Bb F C7
Don't you think it's time to try one on
C7
Oh, you and Custer fools of a feather
C7
Hide behind them hides of leather
Bb F C7
You'll throw up that white flag before too long
[Chorus]
C
See, I can be tender I can be sweet
C
I can sweep the Devil off his red hot feet
F Bb C
Oh, I do love dancin' down a hardwood hall
C
Hey I'll be a huckleberry hell cat too
C
Run a 100 miles backward in your boots
Bb F C
When your tough gets tired baby, give me a call
Bb F C
See, I can tell by the way you talk you're ready to fall
[Bridge]
C
Hey, na na na na na la na La na na na na na na
Bb F C
Na na na na na na na na na naw
C
Hey, oo la na na Oo Oo Oo De da na na na na na
Bb F C
Na na na na na na na na naw
C
Maybe it's the liquor maybe it's the night
C
Maybe it's the way your face holds light
C
Maybe it's the music maybe it's lust
C
Maybe you're a diamond maybe you're dust
C
Maybe I'm the woman maybe you're the man
C
Maybe we'll crawl maybe we'll stand
C
Maybe your heart's like Jericho's Wall
C
Call me Joshua, ready to fall
[Chorus]
C
Hey, I can be tender I can be sweet
C
I can sweep the Devil off his red hot feet
F Bb C
Oh, I do love dancin' down a hardwood hall
C
Hey I'll be a huckleberry hell cat too
C
Run a 100 miles backward in them boots
Bb F C
When your tough gets tired baby, give me a call
Bb F C
Hey, I can tell by the way you walk you're ready to fall
Bb F C Bb
Hey, I can tell by the way you walk you're ready to fall
F C Bb F
You're ready to fall, yeah
[Outro]
C7
Whisper in your whiskey late at night
C7
You might fool an untrained eye
Bb F C7
But I know what you need, someone to depend on
