G               Am
I'm a U.S. Male cause I was born
D7                    G
In a Mississippi town on a Sunday morn
G7                              C
Now Mississippi just happens to occupy a place
D7                                       G
In the southeastern portion of this here United States

G7
Now that's a matter of fact buddy
C
And you know it well
D7                             G
So I just call myself the U.S. Male
                           
That's M-A-L-E son that's me

G                      Am
Now I said all that to say all this
D7                                G
I've been watching the way you've been watching my miss
G7                                C
For the last three weeks you been hot on her trail
D7                            G
And you kinda upset this U.S. Male

                             Am
You touch her once with your greasy hands
D7                                 G
I'm gonna stretch your neck like a long rubber band
G7                          C
She's wearing a ring that I bought her on sale
D7                                           G
And that makes her the property of this U.S. Male

    C                                     G
You better not mess with the U.S. Male my friend
    C                                    G
The U.S. Male gets mad he's gonna do you in
    C                        G
You know what's good for yourself son
           C             G
You better find somebody else son
      Am                    D7             G
Don't tamper with the property of the U.S. Male

                                      Am
Through the rain and the heat and the sleet and the snow
D7                      G
The U.S. Male is on his toes
G7                         C
Quit watching my woman for that ain't wise
D7                                        G
You ain't pulling no wool over this boy's eyes

                     Am
I catch you round my woman champ
D7                                  G
I'm gonna leave your head about the shape of a stamp
G7                     C
Kinda flattened out so you'll do well
D7                                   G
To quit playing games with this U.S. Male
