[1 verse instrumental intro] A D A Well, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat D A Yes, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat E Well, you must tell me, baby A How your head feels under somethin' like that (turnaround) E7 Under your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, you look so pretty in it *) Honey, can I jump on it sometime? Yes, I just wanna see If it's really the expensive kind You know it balances on your head Just like a mattress balances On a bottle of wine Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, if you wanna see the sun rise Honey, I know where We'll go out and see it sometime We'll both just sit there and stare Me with my belt Wrapped around my head And you just sittin' there In your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, I asked the doctor if I could see you It's bad for your health, he said Yes, I disobeyed his orders I came to see you But I found him there instead You know, I don't mind him cheatin' on me But I sure wish he'd take that off his head Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, I see you got a new boyfriend You know, I never seen him before Well, I saw him Makin' love to you You forgot to close the garage door You might think he loves you for your money But I know what he really loves you for It's your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat

Well, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Yes, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, tell me now, baby, how's your head feel, under that, Under your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, you wear it so pretty, honey, can I jump on it sometime? Well, you wear it so pretty, can I jump on it sometime? You know it balances on your head just like a mattress balances On a bottle of wine Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, if you wanna see the sun, honey, I know where Mmmm, if you wanna see the sun, we'll just sit there and stare Me with my belt wrapped around my head, and you just sittin' there In your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, I asked the doctor could I see you but he said it was bad for my health, he said Well, I disobeyed his orders I came to see you and found him there instead Well, I don't mind he's cheating But how come he was wearing on his Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat? Well, I see you got a new boyfriend; well, I don't wanna see him no more. Well, I saw you makin' love with him, you forgot to close the garage door You might think he loves you for your money But that ain't true, I know what he really loves you for: Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well I don't drink whiskey, no, I don't drink gin But I'm so dirty honey, I've been working all day in the coal bin Right now I wanna see you, honey, will you let me in? Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat Well, can I be your chaufueur, honey, can I be your chauffeur? Well, you can ride with me, honey I'll be your chaufeur just as long as you stay in the car - if you get out and start to walk, you just might topple over in your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat
