Note: Ramones use Barre Chords, not power chords. All Ramones songs are played
by using downstrokes only. Their music is not that simple while being played
properly, especially to the live versions.
Lyrics:
If you think you can, come on then
I was a Green Beret in Viet Nam
No more of your fairy stories
Cause I got my other worries.
53rd and 3rd
Standing on the street
53rd and 3rd
I’m tryin’ to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd
You’re the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd
Don’t make you feel sick ?
Then I took out my razor blade
Then I did what God forbade
Now the cops are after me
But I proved that I’m no sissy.
