Intro: G    D 

D             
I show up for work on time at least five days a week,  
G 
Punch that clock and toe the line just to make ends meet.  
A 
Every day on my way home I pass them neon lights,  
    D               G                  A             D 
But I been thinking all day long about stopping in tonight.  

                     G 
I might get a little sideways,  
                  D 
Like I did in the old days.  
                A 
Every once in a while you know,  
                            D 
I slip off the straight and narrow.  
                  G 
Sitting down on a barstool,  
                  D 
Cutting up like a dang fool.  
                A 
Now and then on Fridays,  
                     G         D 
I might get a little sideways. 

D 
I'm gonna call my baby up when that quittin' whistle blows, 
G 
Girl put on your dancing shoes and grab my party clothes.  
A 
Meet me down at the rendezvous on highway seventeen,  
D                   G               A            D 
We'll stoke up that jukebox and let off a little steam.  

                      G 
We might get a little sideways,  
                   D 
Like we did in the old days. 
                A 
Every once in a while you know,  
                             D

                  G 
Sitting down on a barstool,  
                  D 
Cutting up like a dang fool.
