   Em                 A     G
An innocent child in New Orleans
A simple girl from simple means
Walked the rails, rode her thumb
She hitched a ride with everyone

     Em
The regular, she'd rearrange
The girl knew how to chop and change

Chorus:
          Em  A G
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change

Took a job working late
Jacking cars from out of state
She found no love in this town
So she'd never mess around

Had no luck
But ain't it strange?
The girl knew how
To chop and change

Chorus:
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
