College Rock Hour vcrsion - Chords
College Rock Hour vcrsion - Lyrics
yeah
fortune teller told my mother
day just before I was born
ah, Mrs. Richman, you've got a jerk child coming
we feel he's gonna grow up to be a big jerk
well I'm all grown up now
past the age of 21
stick with me
and we'll have special jerk type fun
cause now I'm a jerk
I spell that J
E
K
I see your husband
sneekin and peepin at me
but he'll find out
bout the jerk I'm supposed to be
you ask me honey
what it's all about
you'd like to know where the jerks go
when they go out
well I can tell you from personal experience
they go to the idiot bar and grill
come with me Friday night
they're serving all kinds of foul swill
yeah oh you ask me honey
why I start to stutter
I think it's just cause I can't tell 11
from a stick of yellow butter
cause I'm a jerk
I would spell that J
E
K
boy I'm glad I remembered this one, you tried to confuse me but I remembered
goin down
to jerkus too
so I can check up on my second cousin
little John the jerkeroo
see, I'm a jerk
(you like that) I spell that J
U

Ooh yeah, whoaw
Now when I was a young boy, at the age of five
My mother said I was, gonna be the greatest man alive
But now I'm a man, way past 21
Want you to believe me baby,
I had lot's of fun
I'm a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
I'm a man
I'm a full grown man
I'm a man
I'm a natural born lovers man
I'm a man
I'm a rollin' stone
I'm a man
I'm a hoochie coochie man
Sittin' on the outside, just me and my mate
You know I'm made to move you honey,
come up two hours late
Wasn't that a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
I'm a man
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
Man-child
I'm a hoochie coochie man
The line I shoot will never miss
When I make love to a woman,
she can't resist
I think I go down,
to old Kansas Stew
I'm gonna bring back my second cousin,
that little Johnny Cocheroo
All you little girls,
sittin'out at that line
I can make love to you woman,
in five minutes time
Ain't that a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
Man
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
I'm a man-child
I'm a hoochie coochie man
well, well, well, well
hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me child
don't hurt me, don't hurt, don't hurt me child
well, well, well, well
