INTRO
. . . . . . . .
Well, you're a real tough cook-ie
with a long his-to-ry,
of break-in' lit-tle hearts
like the one in me.
That's O.-K., let's see how you do it,
Put up your deuce,
let's get down to it.
Hit me with your best shot,
Why don't you hit me
with your best shot?
- Hit me with your best shot,
Fi-re a-way.
- You come on with a come on,
you don't fight fair,
That's O.--K., see if I care.
Knock me down, it's all in vain,
I'll get right back on my feet a-gain
Hit me with your best shot,
Why don't you hit me
with your best shot?
- Hit me with your best shot,
Fi-re a-way.
- GUITAR SOLO

Well, you're a real tough cook-ie
with a long his-to-ry,
of break-in' lit-tle hearts
like the one in me.
Be-fore I put a-no-ther notch
in my lip-stick case,
You bet-ter make sure you
put me in my place.
Hit me with your best shot,
Hit me with your best shot,
Hit me with your best shot,
Fi-re a-way.
- Hit me with your best shot,
Why don't you hit me
with your best shot?
- Hit me with your best shot,
Fi-re a-way.
