Robert Earl this friend of mine
G C
You know he's always looking after my best interest
G C
He told me: Lyle P. you need to get some action
A7 D7
Get your head back in line
B7 C7
You need to get out on your own, boy
B7 C7
This hanging around here's got to stop
Eb7 D7
Get out on your own, boy
Eb7 D7
And take a little trip to the record shop
G
I said: The record shop?
C
But, Robert, I don't need no records
G C
He just smiled and he said what you need is a
G C
Record lady (record lady)
G C
Record lady (record lady)
A7
She's got the cutest little cartridge
D7
That you've ever seen
Eb7 D7
She's a phonographic dream
G C
I didn't waste no time about it
G C
I put on my coat and shoes
G C
I packed up my old rocking chair
A7 D7
And I left them hell on Church Street blues
B7 C7
And I went down to the record shop
B7 C7
What else could I do?
Eb7 D7
She was five-foot-one and three-quarters
Eb7 D7
But Lord, she claimed she five-foot-two
G C
Well she looked at me with her big green eyes
G C
She said: Can I help you find something?
G
I said: What you got on special?
G C
Record lady (record lady)

She's got the cutest little cartridge

That you've ever seen
Eb7 D7
She's a phonographic dream
G C
Acting very sophisticated
G C
I began to browse around
G C
I walked up to the record lady
A7 D7
And I said: I sure do like what I have found
B7 C7
It would be so beautiful
B7 C7
Please, come away with me
Eb7 D7
We could run down to Istanbul
Eb7 D7
Or maybe even gay Paree
G C
Well she looked at me with her big green eyes
G C
She said: Can I help you find something?

I said: What you got on special?

G C
One day you know I will see
G C
My phonographic fantasy
G C
In sweet fulfillment to the last detail
A7 D7
Down in Acapulco or even somewhere else
B7 C7
Just her and me together
B7 C7
The whole day long
Eb7 D7
Her and me together
Eb7 D7
Playing them records all night long

She's the record lady (record lady)
