Fas ci nat ing rhy thm, you’ve got me on the go!
Fas ci nat ing rhy thm, I’m all a quiv er.
(Eb7)What a mess your mak ing!
The neigh bors want to know why I’m al ways shak ing just like a fliv ver.
Each morn ing (Fm7)I get (Bb7)up with the (Eb)sun,
(Start a hop ping, (Gm)nev er stop ping) to find, at night, no (F7)work has been (Bb7)done.
I know that (Bb7)once it did n’t mat ter, but now you’re do ing wrong; when you start to pat ter, I’m so un hap py.
(Eb7)Won’t you take a day off?
De cide to run a long some where far a way off, and make it snap py!
Oh, how I (Fm6)long to (G7)be the man I used to (F7)be!
(Bb7)Fas ci nat ing rhy thm, oh, won’t you stop (F7)pick ing (Bb7)on (Eb)me!
Fas ci nat ing rhy thm, you’ve got me on the go!
