I GET UP
LIKE A ROCKET
IN A HURRICANE
THEN IT'S OFF TO WORK
LIKE A RUNAWAY TRAIN
DRIVIN' THEM NAILS
DRAGGIN' MY TAIL
IT DON'T TAKE MUCH
TO FOLLOW MY TRAIL
FOLLOW MY TRAIL
BACK AND FORTH
IN A GAME OF PICKLE
I AIN'T NOTHIN'
BUT THE MONKEY
IN THE MIDDLE
WALKIN' THAT SIDESHOW
TIGHTROPE
MAKIN' ENDS MEET
WELL THAT ORGAN
GRINDER'D
BE IN A BIND
WITHOUT ME
IN THAT CIRCUS
THEY WORK US
LIKE A BUNCH
OF BORROWED MULES
BUT EVERY TIME
THE MUSIC PLAYS
HEY I KNOW WHAT TO DO
EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT
AT THE HONKY TONK
YEAH ME AND MY BABY
MAKE THAT DIVE JUMP
HUP
WHEN OUR BUCKLES
BUMP
I TELL YOU WHAT
THAT GIRL IS PACKIN'
SOME POWERFUL STUFF
POWERFUL STUFF
WE GET HOME
SHE PLAYS ME
LIKE A FIDDLE
MAKIN' SWEET MUSIC
WITH THE MONKEY
IN THE MIDDLE
WALKIN' THAT SIDESHOW
TIGHTROPE
MAKIN' ENDS MEET
WELL THAT ORGAN
GRINDER'D
BE IN A BIND
WITHOUT ME
IN THAT CIRCUS
THEY WORK US
LIKE A BUNCH
OF BORROWED MULES
BUT EVERY TIME
THAT MUSIC PLAYS
SUGAR
I KNOW WHAT TO DO
12 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
AND THEN
I GET UP LIKE A ROCKET
IN A HURRICANE
THEN IT'S OFF TO WORK
LIKE A RUNAWAY TRAIN
DRIVIN' THEM NAILS
DRAGGIN' MY TAIL
IT DON'T TAKE MUCH
TO FOLLOW MY TRAIL
FOLLOW MY TRAIL
BACK AND FORTH
IN A GAME OF PICKLE
I AIN'T NOTHIN'
BUT THE MONKEY
IN THE MIDDLE
MONKEY IN THE MIDDLE
THAT'S RIGHT
COME ON
