i looked and looked for this song online , but i couldn’t find it so i thought i
would try my hand at posting a tab . here it goes .

listen to the song for the picking and the timing , which is a little strange in some spots .

verse 1 :

C
well i met her on the corner of broadway
F
said she seen me coming for a mile
C
guess i should have known she was trouble
C7 G
by the hoodwink in her eye
C
she said now watch my hands real careful
F
but i should have been watching her feet
C
cause before i knew it , she stole my heart and my wallet
G C C7
went running on down the street .

chorus :

F
the greatest hustler of all
C
stands about four foot nine
G
made to be a moocher

low down hoochie – coocher
C
Daddy made her walk the line
F
hustles with the greatest of ease
C
fools any boy any time
F C
the greatest hustler , in all of this world
F C
hustled this heart of mine

verse 2 :
C
now i’ve been hustled on the streets of chicago
F
and the levees of new orleans
C
but i never knew a woman to work so fast
C7 G
she’s what you’d call a hustling queen
C
and i took her to the fair on friday
F
and we stepped into the kissing booth
C
i puckered my lips , the steal me a kiss
G C C7
she went and stole my gold tooth

chorus

harmonica solo
( verse chords )

verse 3 :
C
well if you see her coming this way boys better take care
F
cause she’ll hustle your heart away into the air
C
so fellas if your down on the corner
F
she’s not that hard to find
C
she’s the greatest hustler in all of this world
G C C7
she stands about four foot nine

chorus

F C
the greatest hustler in all of this world
F C
been hustling this heart of mine

hope that’s about right ,
