This is what I came up with for the solo. It seems pretty accurate 
but I‘m still a bit cautious because it‘s the first time that I figured out 
a somewhat difficult solo. This is the solo on the album, by the way. I‘m 
aware that their live versions(Unplugged,etc.)are a bit different in that 
they contain solos by Joe, Brad and Tom Ghimbel(saxophone)but this is the 
Toys in the Attic version and therefore, this is the only guitar solo. 
You‘ll have to work out the timing on your own because all I did was put two 
spaces in between notes. Anyway, here it is:

The chord progression for the rest of the song is the same. The rest of the 
lyrics go like this: 
 
Last night I tried to tease her 
I gave my love a little pinch 
But she said "Now stop that jivin‘ 
now whip out your big ten-inch 
 
(chorus) 
 
I‘ll cover her with kisses 
and when we‘re in a lover‘s clinch 
she gets all excited 
but then she puts on my big ten-inch 
 
(chorus) 
 
My gal don‘t go for smokin‘ 
and liquor just makes her flinch 
Seems she don‘t go for nothin‘ 
‘cept for my big ten-inch 
 
(chorus)

"I was listening to a tape of Dr.Demento given me by an old friend of 
ours called Zonk, and I heard this song, which is originally from like 1936. 
The big rumor is that I say, ‘Suck on my big 10 inch‘ on the record. I 
don‘t. I‘m saying ‘cept‘-as in except-not ‘suck.‘ But no one in the whole 
world believes me."
