Intro:

C  F  G (x4)

Verse 1:

    C
Too hot,
                 G
This town is too hot.
(Too hot, too hot),
Now they're callin' for their guns,
About to spoil the rude boys funs,
But rude boys never give up their guns;
         C
It's too hot.
(Too hot, too hot),
                              G
No man, can tell them what to do,
(Too hot, too hot),
Pound for pound, they say;
                   C
They're ruder than you.
(Too hot, too hot).

Verse 2:

                          G
They are boss and no back down,
You might have a couple you like,
Choose your burial site,
Take insurance, make up your will,
             C
Come out and tell them.
(Fight them, fight them).

Solo:

C, G, C

Verse 3:

    C
The soldiers, came back to you.
     G
With-out them the police force,
Are afraid;
                C
They can't even touch them.
(Too Hot, too hot).
They say; "You think you're bad?
              G
Why don't you come out yourself?"
These boys are calling for a fight,
Fighting tonight, they don't lie;
         C
It's too hot.
(Too Hot, too hot), Too hot, too hot.
