G    D

D            
I show up for work on time at least five days a week, 
G
Punch that clock and toe the line just to make ends meet. 
A
Every day on my way home I pass them neon lights, 
    D               G                  A             D
But I been thinking all day long about stopping in tonight. 

                     G
I might get a little sideways, 
                  D
Like I did in the old days. 
                A
Every once in a while you know, 
                            D
I slip off the straight and narrow. 
                  G
Sitting down on a barstool, 
                  D
Cutting up like a dang fool. 
                A
Now and then on Fridays, 
                     G         D
I might get a little sideways.

D
I'm gonna call my baby up when that quittin' whistle blows,
G
Girl put on your dancing shoes and grab my party clothes. 
A
Meet me down at the rendezvous on highway seventeen, 
D                   G               A            D
We'll stoke up that jukebox and let off a little steam. 

                      G
We might get a little sideways, 
                   D
Like we did in the old days.
                A
Every once in a while you know, 
                             D
We slip off the straight and narrow. 
                  G
Sitting down on a barstool, 
                  D
Cutting up like a dang fool. 
                A
Now and then on Fridays,
                      G   D  
We might get a little sideways.

                      G
We might get a little sideways, 
                   D
Like we did in the old days.
                A
Every once in a while you know, 
                             D
We slip off the straight and narrow. 
                  G
Sitting down on a barstool, 
                  D
Cutting up like a dang fool. 
                A
Now and then on Fridays,
                      G    
We might get a little sideways. 
                A
Now and then on Fridays,
                      G        D
We might get a little sideways.
