D#                   F# G#
I get up around seven
G#                       F# D#
Get outta bed around nine
D#                              F# G#
And I don't worry about nothin' no
       G#                    F# D#
Cause worryin's a waste of my, time

The show usually starts around seven
We go on stage at nine
Get on the bus at eleven
Sippin' a drink and feelin' fine

Chorus:
F#                  B
We been dancin' with Mr. Brownstone
C#                                      D#
He's been knockin', He won't' leave me alone
D#
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone

A#
I used ta do a little but a little wouldn't do
       G#
So the little got more and more
  A#
I just keep tryin' ta get a little better
       G#
Said a little better than before
  A#
I used ta do a little but a little wouldn't do
       G#
So the little got more and more
  A#
I just keep tryin' ta get a little better
       G#
Said a little better than before

Chorus

Now, I get up around whenever
I used to get up on time
But that old man he's a real motherfucker
Gonna kick him on down the line

I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryna get a little better
Said the little better than before
I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryna get a little better
Said the little better than before

Chorus

Stuck it in the middle and I shot it in the middle
And it, it drove outta my mind
I should've known better,
said I wish I never met her
Said I leave it all–behind
Yowsa!
