This song is the story of Spike--the legendary boy with a dog collar
on--
and his experience upon entering the Cypress Lounge, a little redneck
bar
in lovely Gainesville, Florida.
Intro: Am
[Am] Doo doo doo doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Verse:
[Am] Oh look we got another one, just like the other ones
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tom_petty/spike_crd.html )
Another bad ass, another trouble maker
[G] I'm scared, ain't you boys scared
[Am]Oh, I wonder if he's gonna show us what bad is

[G]Think we oughta throw ol' Spike a bon[Am]e
Make me say
Doo doo doo doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Verse 2:
Oh here's another misfit, another Jimmy Dean
Bet he's got a motorbike, whatta ya'll think
Bet if we be good, we'll get a ride on it
If he ain't to mad about the future
Maybe we oughta help him see, the future ain't what it used to be

Chorus:
Hey Spike whatta you like
Hey Spike you're scarin' my wife
Hey Spike tell us about life
Can you tell me about life
I might need me a dog collar too boy
It might make me say, say Oow
I might say, might say...
(to get the full effect, you must end by panting like a dog)
