You caught me in the middle dazed on the carpet I was following the lines, That move like more snakes thinking Something ain't quite right You got the devil on your side, Standing to your right come on You caught me in the middle dazed and confused I was following the good steps, Fancy free and footloose. And something ain't quite right But if you get them on your side, Then we'll have a good time, Come on now come on! I get along, I get along, I get along, I get along Get along It's coming out my ears, So baby here's what we'll do There's four for you and nine for him, And six for them and let me see Now something ain't quite right You can get them on your side, Then we'll have a good time, come on! I get along, I get along, I get along, I get along Get along I get along singing my song, People tell me I'm wrong F*ck 'em! It's coming out my ears, So baby here's what we'll do There's four for you and nine for him, And nine for them. Now something ain't quite right You got the devil on your side, Standing to your right, come on! I get along, I get along, I get along, I get along And when I do, I'm singing, get along!
