(A)Monterey Jack woke up in his shack on a (E)Monday
Monterey Jack had a little bitty snack (A)of some elderberry wine
Monterey Jack walked (D)down the track, (A)all the way to ol' (E)Harley's shack
(A)Stuck his knife in (D)ol' Harley's back
And they (A)say that's the way (E)ol' Harley Davison (A)died

1...2...3...4...

(A)Ol' Jack Hoff was gettin' off in a (E)doorway
Ol' Jack Hoff was gettin' off (A)with little Sarah Lee
Ol' Jack Hoff was (D)gettin' off when he (A)mumbled and stumbled and (E)started to cough
And his (A)vein went hard and (D)he went soft
And they (A)say that's the way how (E)ol' Jack Hoff (A)O.G.'d

Spoken:
You mean O.D.
No.... O.G.
Oh man what's that?
That's when you O.D and you say Oh Gee!

(A)Tom McCann was sittin' in the sand by the (E)ocean
Tom McCann looked into his hand and (A)found a jelly-roll
Tom McCann was (D)feelin' grand, (A)all the girls were (E)lickin' his hand
(A)He's a heel but (D)man, oh man, (A)everybody knows (E)that Tom McCann's (A)got soul

Spoken:
Its over
No it ain't
No it ain't either, here it is again

That's really the end
