C

Here come Helen she looking mighty good

E7

Strutting on the street like a pretty woman should

F                                                    D7

Woman like that don’t grow on a tree boy

C                                                     A7

Lord, send a little more of that my way

    F                            G               C

I think I’m about to see a better day

 

I run into Willie down on the corner

He give me fifty dollar for the bus to Florida

Money like that don’t grow on a tree boy

Lord send a little more of that my way

I think I’m about to see a better day

 

CHORUS

A7

Don’t matter what line you in

D7

Color of your hair, the color your skin

                 F                                  G                              C

You’ll be down some time don’t matter what you do or say

A7

When that day come just get on the street

D7

Start singing with your lips and dancing with your feet

F                          G               C

You’re bound to see a better day

 

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

 

CHORUS

 

Here come Helen she looking mighty good

Strutting on the street like a pretty woman should

Woman like that don’t grow on a tree boy

Lord, send a little more of that my way

I think I’m about to see a better day
