I[C]'m walkin' down the street


Like Lucky Larue


G[F]ot my hand in my pocket


I'm thinkin' 'bout you


I ain't [C]hurtin' nobody


I ain't hurtin' no [C]one


Th[C]ere's three hundred men


In the state of Tennessee


T[F]hey're waiting to die


They won't never be free


I ain't hu[C]rtin' nobody


I ain't hurtin' no o[C]ne


S[G]ix million seven hundred thousand


And thirty-three li[F]ghts [C]on


Y[G]ou think someone could take the time


To sit down and listen to the words of [F]my s[C]ong


[C]At the beach in Indiana


I was nine years old


[F]Heard Little Richard singing "Tutti Frutti"


>From the top of a telephone pole


I wasn't hur[C]tin' nobody


I wasn't hurtin' no o[C]ne


T[C]here's roosters laying chickens


And chickens layin' eggs


[F]Farm machinery eating


People's arms and legs


I ain't hu[C]rtin' nobody


I ain't hurtin' no o[C]ne


[G]Perfectly crafted popular hit songs never use


the wr[F]ong rh[C]yme


Y[G]ou'd think that waitress could get my order


Right the fi[F]rst t[C]ime


INSTRUMENTAL:


 [C]     [F]     [C]    [G]     [C]  S[C]he's sitting on the back steps


Just shucking that corn


T[F]hat gal's been grinning


Since the day she was born


She ain't hu[C]rtin' nobody


She ain't hurtin' no o[C]ne


[C]I used to live in Chicago


Where the cold wind blows


[F]I delivered more junk mail


Than the junkyard would hold


I wasn't hur[C]tin' nobody


I wasn't hurtin' no o[C]ne


Y[G]ou can fool some of the people part of the time


In a rock and r[F]oll s[C]ong


F[G]ifty million Elvis Presley Fans


Can't be a[F]ll wr[C]ong


[C]I'm walkin' down the street


Like Lucky Larue


[F]Got my hand in my pocket, Baby


I'm thinkin' 'bout you


I ain't hur[C]tin' nobody


I ain't hurtin' no o[C]ne


ENDING:


I ain't hu[C]rtin' nobody


I ain't hurtin' no o[C]ne


  [C]       [F]  Hu[C]rtin' nobody


Hurtin' no o[C]ne


  [C]       [F]  Hu[C]rtin' nobody


Hurtin' no o[C]ne


  [C]       [F]  Hu[C]rtin' nobody[G]


Hurtin' no o[C]ne
