Shame On You
by Spade Cooley
(A) Shame,(E7)shame on (A)you,
(D)Shame, shame on (E7)you,
(D)Took my heart as a token,
When (A)returned, it was broken,
Hide your (E7)face, shame on you.
Shame, shame on you,
Shame, shame on you,
Took my car and my money,
Tell you gal, that ain?funny,
Dern your hide, shame on you.
Shame, shame on you,
Shame, shame on you,
Ran around with other guys,
Tried to lie when I got wise,
Foolish girl, shame on you.
Shame, shame on you,
Shame, shame on you,
Two can play your little game,
You'll find out who was to blame,
Hide your face, shame on you.
Shame, shame on you,
Shame, shame on you,
Can you hold your head up high?
Look your friends right in the eye?
No you can't, shame on you.
