[riff 1] [riff 1]
I been around the world, I seen a million girls,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
Ain^Òt one of them got, what my lady she^Òs got,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She^Òs stealin^Ò the spotlight, she knocks me off my feet,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She^Òs enough to start a landslide, just a walkin^Ò down the street,
[riff 2] [riff 2]
Wearin^Ò dresses so tight, and lookin^Ò dynamite,
[riff 2] [F#] [E]
Enough to blow me out, no doubt about it can^Òt live without it,
Chorus:
[riff 1] [riff 1]
Girls got rhythm, girls got rhythm,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She got the backseat rhythm, girls got rhythm
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She^Òs like a lethal brand, too much for any man,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She gives me first degree, she really satisfies me,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
Loves me ^Ñtill I^Òm legless, achin^Ò and sore,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
She^Òs enough to stop a freight train, or start the third world war,
[riff 2] [riff 2]
You know I^Òm losin^Ò sleep, ^Ñcause I^Òm in too deep,
[riff 2] [F#] [E]
And my body needs love, no doubt about it can^Òt live without it,
Repeat Chorus
For the bridge you just repeat [riff 1]
[riff 2] [riff 2]
You know she moves like sin, and when she lets me in,
[riff 2] [F#] [E]
It^Òs like liquid love, no doubt about it can^Òt live without it,
Repeat Chorus
[riff 1] [riff 1]
You know she really got the rhythm, she got the backseat rhythm,
[riff 1] [riff 1]
Rock and roll rhythm, the girls got rhythm.
