INTRO A D A E A 
A                          E 
I'm slippin' into Slidell, the boys and me                              
                                     A 
Take a left at the Texaco, gonna see Sweet Marie 
                                       E 
She plays down at Jimbeaux's Gumbo and Washtub 
                                            A 
In calico and barefeet in a band called the Mudbugs 
F#m                             D 
I been workin' up my nerve and I can hardly wait 
E 
Tonight when she asks for request 
 
I'll stand up and say 

A 
I wanna be your squeeze box 
               E 
Always at your fingertips 
 
I wanna be your blues harp 
                A 
A little closer to your lips 
 
Let me be your washboard 
                D        
You can play me fast or slow 
A                              
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby 
E                A 
Anything you can hold
 
 
A D A E A  
 
A                                            E 
Got a bucket full of crawfish, a seat on the front row 
                                                   A 
Just to sit this close to her, it's like a shot of tabasco 
                                             E 
Makin' trips to the tip jar, keep it full of dollar bills 
                                              A 
Tonight I'm gonna go for broke, show her just how I feel 
F#m                             D 
One way or another, Lord, she's gonna notice me 
E 
If I have to jump up on that stage and get down on my knees 
 
I'll be beggin her please 
               A 
Let me be your squeeze box 
                E 
Always at your fingertips 
 
I wanna be your blues harp 
                A 
A little closer to your lips 
 
Let me be your washboard 
                D 
You can play me fast or slow 
A 
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby 
E                A 
Anything you can hold 
A            A           A          A           
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard, baby 
E                A 
Anything you can hold
