[Verse 1]
G C
Your little hoodrat friend makes me sick
Em F C
But after I get sick I just get sad
G C
'Cause it burns being broke, Hurts to be heartbroken,
Em F C
And always being both must be a drag
G C Em F C
She's been calling me again
G C Em F C
She's been calling me again
[Verse 2]
G C
Your little hoodrat friend's been calling me again
Em F C
And I can't stand all the things that she sticks into her skin
G C
Like sharpened ballpoint pens and steel guitar strings
Em F C
She says it hurts, but it's worth it
G C
Tiny little text etched into her neck
Em F C
It said "Jesus lived and died for all your sins"
G C
She's got blue black ink and it's scratched into her lower back
Em F G
Says, Damn right, I'll rise again. Yeah, damn right she'll rise again
G C Em F C
Yeah, damn right she'll rise again!
G C Em F C
[Chorus]
G D C
And I've been dusted in the dark up in Penetration Park, and I've been plastered
G D C
I've been shaking hard and searching in a dirty storefront church, and I've been plowed
G D
But I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
G D
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
What makes you think I'm getting with your little hoodrat friend?
[Verse 3]
G C
Your little hoodrat friend got me high though
Em F C
When we were 17 and stuck up, up in Osseo
G C
She said, it's funny how true love gets troubled by still water
Em F C
And washed up in the Mississippi River
G C
Her claddagh ring was pointed at the people
Em F C
She said, "St. Theresa came to me in dreams"
G C
She said, "I ain't gonna do anything sexual with you
Em F C
I'm kinda saving myself for the scene"
[Chorus]
G D C
And I've been dusted in the dark up in Penetration Park, and I've been plastered
G D C
I've been shaking hard and searching in a dirty storefront church, and I've been plowed
G D
But I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
G D
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
What makes you think I'm getting with your little hoodrat friend?
[Spoken Section]
G
And she said city center used to be the center of our scene
G
Now city center's over, no one really goes there
G
And then we used to drink beneath this railroad bridge
G
Some nights the bus wouldn't even stop, there was just too many kids
[Chorus]
G D C
I was waiting for my ride and I got jumped from behind, I got punctured
G D C
I got stopped by the cops and they found it in my socks, And I got probed
G D
But I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
G D
I ain't never been with your little hoodrat friend
F C
What makes you think I'm getting with your little hoodrat friend?
