Got Me The Rhythm

(Intro - Instrumental)

Had a hard day a work, so I’m crackin’ up a brew.
Sittin’ on the couch, and kickin’ off my shoes.
Flippin’ round the dial, lookin’ for some tunes.
Jack the singin’ cowboy, fillin’ up the room.
Nothin’ else ever means a thing.
Like listenin’ to an old cowboy sing.
Got me oh the rhythm……..in my soul!

Well soon my toe’s a tappin’, hips are swayin’ round.
Oh, that singin’ cowboy, he makes a country sound.
Chug-a-lug-a-luggin’ and soakin’ up the gloom.
Now my feet are movin’, a dancing round the room.
Got me the rhythm……..in my soul! Ho!

(Instrumental)

I slip my belt around me, and pull my cow-boots on.
Telee up some good friends, we’re dancin’ until dawn.
Rhinestones and leather, time to bring it down.
Fire up the pick-up, a night out on the town.
Got me oh the rhythm……..in my soul!

Well Charlie he’s a pickin’, and Martha on the tub.
Clancy’s on the fiddle, there’s a table full of grub.
Suds and wine a flowin’, feelin’ a rosy glow.
Frankie’s got the beat now, he’s puttin’ on a show.
Got me oh the rhythm……..in my soul! Ho!

(Instrumental)

Well somewhere ten past midnight, the neighbors called the fuzz.
I didn’t see it comin’, cause I had quite a buzz.
But when they heard the music, they put away the cuffs.
The chief he started jiggin’, a good old Sargent
Gus.
Got him oh the rhythm……..in his soul!

We danced all night ‘till mornin’, I got a poundin’ head.
Jumped into a taxicab, I’m lyin’ on my bed.
Monday mornin’s comin’ but it’s still far away.
Hell it’s Saturday night, ah there’s still time to play.
Got me ah the rhythm……..in my soul! Ho!
