(Get Out And Get Under)

D A7 D
Johnny O’Connor bought an automobile.
G Em A7
He took his sweetheart for a ride one Sunday.
D A7 D
Johnny was togged up in his best Sunday clothes,
E7 A7
She nestled close to his side.
D A7 D
Things went just dandy ‘till he got down the road,
G Em A7
Then something happened to the old machinery.
D# G#7
That engine got his goat, off went his hat and coat,
D# G#7
Everything needed repairs.
Chorus :
A7
He’d have to get under, get out and get under
D
To fix his little machine.
Em6 A7
He was just dying to cuddle his queen,
D
But every minute when he’d begin it,
A7
He’d have to get under, get out and get under,
D D6
Then he’d get back at the wheel.
G7 Bdim7
A dozen times they’d start to hug and kiss
F#m B7
And then the darned old engine, it would miss.
Em7 A7
And then he’d have to get under, get out and get under,
D
And fix up his automobile.
D A7 D
Millionaire Wilson said to Johnny one day,
G Em A7
"Your little sweetheart don’t appreciate you,
D A7 D
I have a daughter who is hungry for love,
E7 A7
She likes to ride, by the way."
D A7 D
Johnny had visions of a million in gold,
G Em A7
He took her riding in his little auto.
D# G#7
But every time that he went to say, "Marry me!"
D# G#7
‘Twas the old story again.
Chorus :
A7
He’d have to get under, get out and get under
D
To fix his little machine.
Em6 A7
He was just dying to cuddle his queen,
D
But every minute when he’d begin it,
A7
He’d have to get under, get out and get under,
D D6
Then he’d get back at the wheel.
G7 Bdim7
A dozen times they’d start to hug and kiss
F#m B7
And then the darned old engine, it would miss.
Em7 A7
And then he’d have to get under, get out and get under,
D
And fix up his automobile.
