Git up, ya git down |
|
Ya git lost and then ya get found |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Ya git a laugh, ya git a cry |
|
Get 'em all before you die |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Come on, sit down, git down |
|
A-come on, sit down, git down |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
You git the truth, ya git a lie 'nough to make a grown man cry |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
You git the light, you git the dark |
|
Fall in love, it breaks your heart |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Come on, sit down, git down |
|
A-come on, sit down, git down |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
All the ladies hypnotize you |
|
And all your friends, well they just patronize you |
|
Don't God look forgot? |
|
He's just sittin' here |
|
And I think |
|
He's got a plan but it's not too clear |
|
Mm-mm-mmm mm-mm-mm |
|
Mm-mm-mmm mm |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Mm-mm mm-mm-mmm mm-mm-mm |
|
Mm-mm-mmm mm |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Come on, sit down, git down |
|
A-come on, sit down, git down |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Come on, sit down, git down |
|
A-come on, sit down, git down |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Sure as I'm sittin' here |
|
Come on... {fade} |
