Man: She looked like a corpse on my front porch

Clutching the stone of her latest divorce, saying

G A E

Both: Let's get the baby high!

E

Woman: Oh Little pig, little pig, let me in!

I've traded food stamps for a bottle of gin, c'mon

G A E

Let's get the baby high!

F# C#

Man: For someone like you to get custody

F# C#

Of an innocent child is a tragedy,

A B E

You won't get your baby high.

E

Woman: Oh, just open up, i've got nowhere to go.

My man threw me out and it's starting to snow, so

G A E

Let's get the baby high!

E

Man: I don't mean to question your parenting skills,

But i'm really amazed that kid hasn't been killed!

G A E

Please don't get your baby high.

F# C#

Woman: For someone like you to criticize me

F# C#

Is really the height of hypocrisy!

A B E

So let's get the baby high!

BRIDGE: E C repeated several times

E

Man: There's no way in hell I'll open my door,

I still have pictures from the time before

G A E

You won't get your baby high.

E

Woman: Yes i've traded my bullets for a couple of lids,

But it's none of your business how i raise my kids!

G A E

Now let's get the baby high!

F# C#

Man: For someone like you to get custody

F# C#

Of an innocent child is a tragedy,

A B E

You won't get your baby high.

E

Woman: I've asked you politely, now i'm gonna be mean-

If you don't open up, i'm going to scream!

G A E

Now let's get the baby high!

E

Man: You can scream all you want but you're not gettin' in

What you do to that kid is really a sin!

G A E

Please don't get your baby high.

F# C#

Woman: For someone like you to criticize me

F# C#

Is really the height of hypocrisy!

A B E

Now let's get the baby high!

BRIDGE: E C repeated several times

E

Man: She stood still like a corpse on my front porch

Still clutching the stone of her latest divorce, saying

G A E

Let's get the baby high.
