MESSING WITH THE KID
Words and Music by Mel London
(originally recorded by Junior Wells and many others since)





(BPM: 122) INTRO

What's this I hear goin' round town
The people say you try to put the kid down
Hey hey tell me what you did

You can call it what you want
But I call it messin' with the kid (STOP no riff)

Now the kid plays hot but the hot don't pay
I say what I mean, mean what I say
Yeah, yeah tell me what you did

You can call it what you want
But I call it messin' with the kid (RIFF)

BREAK

Well tell me you love me I tell you you lie
But I know I love ya baby, 'til the day I die
Hey hey tell me what you did

You can call it what you want
But I call it messing with the kid (no riff)

BREAK to riff

I'm gonna take the kid's car and drive all over town
Gonna tell everybody not to put the kid down
Hey yeah tell me what you did

You can call it what you want
I call it messin' with the kid (to 3 x riffs outro)
