Intro: A E D E A
Well we've got [A] alot alot of hard [D] work today We gotta rock at the government [E] center [A] To make the secretaries feel [E] better When they put those [E] stamps on the [A] letters
And they got alot alot of great desks and chairs Now, at the government center Where they put the stamps on all the letters And then they write it down in the ledger
We gotta rock-a rock-a rock-a nonstop tonight Uh huh, at the government center Where they put the stamps on the letters And then they write it down in the ledger
We [A] won't stop until we see secretaries smile And see some [D] office boys jump up for [A] joy Tell [D] old Mr. Ayhern, "Calm down a while, You know that's the [E] only way the center is ever gonna get better"
(verse chords again) We gotta rock-a rock-a rock-a nonstop tonight At the government center Where they put the stamps on the letters And then they write it down in the ledger
Closing ad-lib section: A D A D A D .......
