A
Why get up, why get up
D A
How can I get up, why should I get up
E
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
D7 A
I'm gonna sleep forever why get up
A
Phone keeps ringing right off the hook
Some bill collector, I know what cooks
D
Think I'll stay in bed, dream all day
A
World outside bugs me anyway
E
When I get things going, the going gets rough
D7 A
So I ask myself why get up
Chorus
A
Went to the doctor, he said lose some weight
If you don't do it quick, we'll have to operate
D
I talked to my lawyer, he said case is closed
A
That woman got it all even the garden hose
E
Staring at the ceiling thinking just my luck
D7 A
Better roll back over why get up
Chorus
A
Well I can't quit drinking, I'm nervous all the time
When I wake up, it's like a ton lead on my mind
D
What was it, I said to that girl last night
A
She really got upset, I best stay out of sight
E
I remember a gun and calling somebody's bluff
D7 A
I better duck under the cover why get up
Chorus
