Can't Get Up - Delbert McClinton, Self-Made Men

I was a dynamo

I boogied with the best

Put it to the test, for sure

But now I can’t get up enough

To get down like I used to anymore

There gon' come a day

When you gon' have to choose

Get your shit together

Or go on playing the fool

No, you won’t see it comin'

But it’s comin' to get you for sure

And then you won’t be gettin' up

To get down like you used to anymore

You know, the more things change

The more they stay the same

Livin' and dyin'

Seem to be the name of the game

No, you won’t see it comin'

But it’s comin' to get you for sure

And then you won’t be gettin' up

To get down like you used to anymore
