This is a remix of my original track. The song was inspired from a response my dad had given my mom regarding a leaky faucet. This is for those of us who are much more into spring training than we are spring cleaning ...
Get Up And Go (Remix)The car needs fixin’, and the shrubs need trimming,
and the paint can use a coat or two.
And out in the kitchen the faucet is drippin’,
and my weekend is filled with Honey do’s.
But I’ve worked all week and the time has come for me
to just relax and take life easy.
But you don’t understand why I am the way I am,
So, sit down honey, I’ll explain it if I can…
You see, my get up and go just got up and went.
My fast became slow, when my last dollar’s spent.
My yes became no, and my can became can’t
‘cause my get up and go just got up and went.
Yes, my get up and go just got up and went.
Now, the baseball game is on TV.
It’s calling my name and my destiny
is to sit on the couch and be lazy.
Now what’s the matter honey, why can’t you see…
That my get up and go just got up and went.
My fast became slow, when my last dollar’s spent.
My yes became no, and my can became can’t
‘cause my get up and go just got up and went.
Yes, my get up and go just got up and went.
So, on Saturday night I took out my wife
to apologize and make things right.
And she looked so good that when we went to bed,
you know, I asked her if I could, but she looked at me and said …
That her get up and go just got up and went.
Her fast became slow when my last dollar’s spent.
And her yes became no and my can became can’t
‘cause my get up and go just got up and went.
Oh, my get up and go just got up and went.
My fast became slow when my last dollar’s spent.
Her yes became no and my can became can’t
‘cause my get up and go just got up and went.
Oh, my get up and go just got up and went.
Oh, my get up and go got up and went. My get up and go got up and went.
My get up and go just got up and went.
