Lyrics

(G)Mas ter of the House, dol ing out the charm, read y with a hand shake and an o pen palm.

Tells a sau cy tale, makes a lit tle stir, cus tom ers ap pre ci ate a (A7)bon vi veur!

(D)Glad to do my friends a fa vour,

does n’t cost me to be nice.

But noth ing gets you noth ing, ev ’ry thing has got a lit tle (G)price!

(G)Mas ter of the House, keep er of the zoo, read y to re lieve them of a sou, or two.

Wa ter ing the wine, mak ing up the weight, pick ing up their knick knacks when they (A7)can’t see straight.

(D)Ev ’ry bod y loves a land lord,

(B)ev ’ry bod y’s bo som friend.

(Em)I (C)do what ev er plea ses, (D7)Je sus!

Don’t I bleed ’em in the (G)end!
