This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Lyrics

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

And all the girlies say im pretty fly for a white guy

Intro

Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro, Cinco, Cinco, Seis

Verse

You know it's kind of hard

Just to get along today

Our subject isn't cool

But he fakes it anyway

He may not have a clue

And he may not have style

But everything he lacks

Well he makes up in denial

Chorus

So don't debate, a player straight

You know he really doesn't get it anyway

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real

For you no way, for you no way

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe's

So do that brand new thing

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe's

So do that brand new thing

Intro

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

And all the girlies say im pretty fly (for a white guy)

Verse

He needs some cool tunes

Not just any will suffice

But they didn't have Ice Cube

So he bought Vanilla Ice

Now cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass

But if he looks twice

They're gonna kick his lily ass

Chorus

So don't debate, a player straight

You know he really doesn't get it anyway

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real

For you no way, for you no way

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe's

So do that brand new thing

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe's

So do that brand new thing

Bridge

Now he's getting a tattoo

He's gettin' ink done

He asked for a '13', but they drew a '31'

Friends say he's trying too hard

And he's not quite hip

But in his own mind

He's the dopest trip

Verse

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

(Give it to me baby)

Uhh haa uhh haa

Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro, Cinco, Cinco, Seis

Chorus

So don't debate, a player straight

You know he really doesn't get it anyway

He's gonna play the field, and keep it real

For you no way, for you no way

So if you don't rate, just overcompensate

At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

The world needs wannabe's

The world loves wannabe's

Outro

So let's get some more wannabe's

And do that brand new thing

Rate this, if you like it, THANKS!
