Britches
Recorded by Elvis Presley
Written by Sherman Edwards, Donald Meyer, Sid Wayne

C
Beware of a gal in britches yo-di-o-di-o
                      F
Never trust no gal in britches no-di-o-di-o

If you had a sense of this here horse
    C
You would have known it by now of course
    F
Who wears the britches is the boss
         G7                  C
That's a gal that's a gal in britches


Don't mess with a gal in britches yo-di-o-di-o
                      F
No feminine gal wears britches no-di-o-di-o

She'll beg you to come to the country dance
    C
You ride twenty miles for the big romance
    F
She shows up in her brother's pants
           G7                    C         C7
What'd you expect from a girl in britches 

F                      C
Yo-di-o-di-o-i-ay it's none of my misfortune
F                       C                     G7
Yo-di-o-di-o-di-ay just thought you'd like to know

      C
Don't marry no gal in britches yo-di-o-di-o
                                   F
You'll never know which is which's no-di-o-di-o

She'll put a halter through your nose
     C
Have you cooking and washing clothes
      F
While she goes chasing them buffaloes
         G7                    C
Bet your boots that's a gal in britches
