Straight No Chaser
One, two
One, two, one, two, three, four
Came to this town
I started moving around
Came to get straight, I had to get straight
No time to wait
God knows, I had to make haste
If things are moving, no time for doodling
I used to wonder how
What everything seemed, we're bound to be delayed
I had to get straight
Straight and I'm done
No time for chasin' around
Tryin' to keep up
I gotta keep up, you wanna know why?
Because they're waiting in line
I'm in a hurry, no time to worry
He's meeting me at three
They might as well come, they really douse themselves
Chasin' it straight
Came to this town
I started moving around
Came to get straight, I had to get straight
No time to wait
God knows, I had to make haste
If things are moving, no time for doodlin'
I used to wonder how
What everything seemed, we're bound to be delayed
I had to get straight
Straight and I'm done
No time for chasin' around
Tryin' to keep up
I gotta keep up, you wanna know why?
Because they're waiting in line
I'm in a hurry, no time to worry
Meeting me at three
They might as well come, they really douse themselves
Chasin' it straight
One, two, one, two, three, four
Came to this town
I started moving around
Came to get straight, I had to get straight
No time to wait
God knows, I had to make haste
If things are moving, no time for doodling
I used to wonder how
What everything seemed, we're bound to be delayed
I had to get straight
Straight and I'm done
No time for chasin' around
Tryin' to keep up
I gotta keep up, you wanna know why?
Because they're waiting in line
I'm in a hurry, no time to worry
He's meeting me at three
They might as well come, they really douse themselves
Chasin' it straight
Came to this town
I started moving around
Came to get straight, I had to get straight
No time to wait
God knows, I had to make haste
If things are moving, no time for doodlin'
I used to wonder how
What everything seemed, we're bound to be delayed
I had to get straight
Straight and I'm done
No time for chasin' around
Tryin' to keep up
I gotta keep up, you wanna know why?
Because they're waiting in line
I'm in a hurry, no time to worry
Meeting me at three
They might as well come, they really douse themselves
Chasin' it straight
