Get Your Goat On
Terri Hendrix
Intro - Drop D
MUTE
Those that say it can not be done
Should never waste the time of someone
Just like you and just like me
Putting it down in history
The way I see it you can stew or do
You can turn yellow You can turn blue
Or you can strut your stuff down the avenue
And X get your goat on!
Open Up Drop D
I've been one to wear a frown
Big enough to drag everyone down
I puckered up Like I ate a lime
With my sour face I ruined everybody's time
The way I see it you can cry or sing
Sit it out or shake your thing
Play the song Make it ring
And X get your goat on!
CHORUS
Open Up Drop D (dwell on two low strings)
Get on up and dance everybody * now get on up and dance
Get on up and dance everybody * now get on up and dance
Don't you care about who's watching
Just get on up and dance
Get on up and dance everybody
And X get your goat on! (*** Wait 8 beats X 2)
You can stand in the corner and cry and pout
Or turn your frown inside out
Beep to the bop or be a bummer
Get funky with the funk in your own drummer
The way I see it you can stew or do
You can turn yellow you can turn blue
Or you can strut your stuff down the avenue
And X get your goat on!
CHORUS
Open Up Drop D (dwell on two low strings)
Get on up and dance everybody * now get on up and dance
Get on up and dance everybody * now get on up and dance
Don't you care about who's watching
Just get on up and dance
Get on up and dance everybody
And X get your goat on!
