Intro: Em AVerso 1:
A Put on my hat, put on my coat A Go out back and feed my goat C A Nothing but a box of hot donuts on my mind A Go to my car, I check my tires A Fill my pocket with my favorite set of pliers C A I got some nuts to crack, hope they ain't mineF C Got to be the first one up in the morning G You got to catch 'em while they're still in bed F C You got to be quick, don't give 'em any warning G E You got a better chance of not winding up deadVerso 2:
A There's a place I, I got to go by A See the woman with the monkey with the glass eye C A Maybe get a tip on an old friend of mine A His time is up, today's the day A The monkey said it's time for him to pay C A Everybody knows you gotta do what the monkey sayF C Got to be the first one up in the morning G You got to catch 'em while they're still in bed F C You got to be quick, don't give 'em any warning G E You got a better chance of not winding up deadSolo: D Bm Bb G E7Verso 3:
A The day is done, my taps are run A A nothing but another like the other one C A couple of tokes A And a cold one and I'll be fineF C Got to be the first one up in the morning G You got to catch 'em while they're still in bed F C You got to be quick, don't give 'em any warning G You got a better chance of not winding up deadOutro: F C G Yeah F C G E
