Step It Up and Go

Nickel is a nickel, dime is a dime

Get you a girl, you can have a good time

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

Two old maids, sittin' in the sand

Each one wishin' that the other was a man

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

Shootin' dice, got your money on the floor

Up comes the law, knocks on the door

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

She may be old, and ninety years

But she ain't too old for to shift her gears

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

I jumped in the river and started to drown

Thought about my woman and I turned around

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

I knocked on the door about half past ten

She said, "Listen here, baby, you can't come in"

You gotta step it up and go

You gotta step it up and go

Well, you can't stand back

You gotta step it up and go

Whoa
