The Coasters - Yakety Yak
Originally in G, I play in D
Vox on the 1, harmony ends up on the 5 on “trash”
Take out the papers and the Dtrash
Or you don’t get no spending Gcash
If you don’t scrub that kitchen Afloor
Hard stop before this line, band back in on “more”
You ain’t gonna rock and roll no Dmore
Another hard stop after “yak”
DYakety yak, don’t talk back
Band back in “room”
Just finish cleaning up your Droom
Let’s see that dust fly with that Gbroom
Get all that garbage out of Asight
Or you don’t go out Friday Dnight
DYakety yak, don’t talk back
You just put on your coat and Dhat
And walk yourself to the laundry Gmat
And when you finish doing Athat
Bring in the dog and put out the Dcat
DYakety yak, don’t talk back
Solo, with a hard stop on the second I, both times
DGADx2
Don’t you give me no dirty Dlooks
Your father’s hip, he knows what Gcooks
Just tell your hoodlum friends outAside
You ain’t got time to take a Dride
Yakety yDak, don’t talk back
Yakety yak, yakety yaDk
Yakety yak, yakety yaDk
Yakety yak, yakety yaDk
Yakety yak, yakety yaDk
