I sat down in the ver-y first row, wo wo.

they turned the spot-light
4* -5 -5*5*-5*5*5
way down low, wo wo,
3* -3 -3* -3* -3* -3* 4 -3*
lit-tle E-gypt came out strut-ting,

She had a ru-by on her tum-my and

a dia-mond big as Tex-as
3* -3 -3* 3*-3*3*
on her toe, wo wo.

she did the hoot-chy koot-chy
4* -5* 5*-5*5*5
real slow, wo wo,

When she did her spec-ial num-ber

and when she hit the ground,
2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -2
she winked at the au-di-ence
-2 -2* -2* -2* -2* -2*
and then she turned a-round.
-2* -2*-2* 3 3 3 3 3 3
She had a pic-ture of a cow-boy
3* 3* 3* 3* 3*
Tat-tooed on her spine,
3* 3* -3 -3 -3-3 -3 -3
Say-ing Phoe-nix, Ar-i-zo-na,

a tak-ing care of shop-ping
4* -5 -5* 5*-5*5*5
at the store, wo wo.
-3* -3* -3* 4 -3* 4 4*
‘Cause we got sev-en kids and
