Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: LOW DOWN DOG (Steve Webber)
Here's my chord progression layout:

LOW DOWN DOG
Steve Webber

(CAPO on second fret : actually A/F#/B/E/D)
 G                  \                E           \
Don't you treat me like no low down dog (Low down dog)
A \
Don't you know I've got my style
\ D
I just want to walk beside you, baby
C \ \ A
But you say, But you say, I must walk behind
G \ D G
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff
Who will keep your bed warm when I'm gone
If you let the fire go out
You better know what you're about, my baby
But you say, but you say, my bed's warm enough
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff

Who will mind the children when I'm gone
When you want to get away
Who will take them out to play, my baby
But you say, but you say, kids are my whole life
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff

Who will feed you peaches when I'm gone
Your new lover may be cute
But will he bring home the fruit, my baby
But you say, but you say, peaches make me fat
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff

Now, don't you treat me like no Viet Cong
Don't you know I'm from Danang
I just want to let it hang, my baby
But you say, but you say, you don't drop the bomb
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff

On a wagon traveling down your road
Well, you say I'm just one more
That it really is a bore, my baby
But you say, but you say you're all born and robbed
Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff

Additional verse by NoPar King:

Don't you treat me like no Lebanese
Don't you know I'm on my knees?
I just like to step on bees, my baby
But you say, but you say bees may sting my feet
Well I'm not holdin' still for none of that stuff.
