Everybody’s trying to be my baby

Carl Perkins –Beatles: Beatles For Sale (1964)

E7 (¯¯) E7 (¯¯)

Well they took some honey, from a tree,

Dressed it up when they called it me

A

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

E7

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

B7 E7 (Riff)

Everybody’s trying to be my baby now.

Well, half past nine, half past four,

Fifty women knocking on my door

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby now.

(Solo_1:)

When out, last night, I did stay late

Oklahoma had a night scene date

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby now.

(Solo_2:)

When out, last night, I did stay late

Oklahoma had a night scene date

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby now.

Well they took some honey, from a tree,

Dressed it up when they called it me

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby,

Everybody’s trying to be my baby now.
