Lyrics

[Intro]
Alright
[Instrumental]
An innocent child in New Orleans
A simple girl from simple means
Walked the rails, rode her thumb
She hitched a ride with everyone
[PreChorus]
The regular
She'd rearrange
The girl knew how
To chop and change
[Chorus]
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change (Alright)
[Verse 1]
Took a job working late
Jacking cars from out of state
She found no love in this town
So she'd never mess around
[PreChorus]
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
Written by: Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney
