Verse 1

E

Everybody knows you've been stepping on my toes

And I'm getting pretty tired of it

A

You keep a stepping out of line

You're messing with my mind

If you had any sense you'd quit

Chorus

B7

Because ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl

You said I was the only man in this whole world

Now you better do some thinking then you'll find

E

You got the only daddy that'll walk the line
