G                        C 
Quit school when she was seventeen 
G                       D 
Senator on TV calls her welfare Queen 
Em                  G 
Used to be daddy's little girl 
    Em        D            Em       
Now she needs help in this mean old world 
G                         C 
Buys cassette tapes in the bargain bin 
      G                  D 
Loves Carlene Carter and Loretta Lynn 
Em                      G 
Tries to have fun on a Saturday night 
Em           D        Em       G 
Sunday morning don't shine to bright 

G            C 
It's welfare music 
G              D 
Watch the baby dance 
       Em      G 
To the welfare music 
         Em   D        G 
Will she ever stand a chance 


Takes two to make three but ones ain't here 
Still chasing women and drinking beer 
Says nobody understands how he feels 
But that don't pay those monthly bills 
Angry fat man on the radio 
Wants to keep his taxes way down low 
Says there ought to be a law 
Angriest man that you ever saw 

Chorus 

Baby dance circles on the floor 

Around and round just like before 

Baby fall down baby get up 

Baby needs a drink from a loving cup 

Chorus
