[G]Oh Mommy [C]I ain?t no [G]commie
I?m just [G]doin? all I can to do the g[A]ood old American w[D]ay
It s[C]ays right there in the Constitution
It?s [G]really A-OK to have a [E7]revolution
When the l[A]eaders that you choose
D (rest)
Really don?t fit the shoes

[G]Oh mister [C]I ain?t no [G]sister
I b[G]elieve in the Bill of Rights
[A]C?mon don?t you start a fight p[D]lease

When you?ve [A]already accused me twice
D (rest)
Of lookin? like Jesus Christ, hallelujah

Like [A]Mr. Patrick Henry said
D (rest)
I got to be free or dead

[G]Mr. Nixon [C]I ain?t a-f[G]ixin?
To s[G]peak Spanish on a plane or p[A]olish off the Liberty B[D]ell
I [C]just wanna sit here on the shelf
And [G]watch you finish things off [E7]by yourself
[A]Please let me do what I wanna
D (rest)
I?ll just lay around the house and smoke marijuana ? ooohhh

Instrumental: G(8)C(4) G(4) E7(4) A(4) D(8)

It [C]says right there in the Constitution
It?s [G]really A-OK to have a [E7]revolution
When the l[A]eaders that you made

Just don?t make the grade

[G]Oh [E7]mommy [C]I ain?t no [A7]commie

[G] S[CDG]oon[CG]
