lyrics

Wake up Fancy wake up Fancy Dan
Get yourself up out of bed put a guitar in your hand
Don't you know you gotta get going gotta get them juices flowing right on through
Cause time keeps a-wasting and you got some chasing to do
You could use something to do
Remember when your daddy said now son it's time to get cranking
Put your boots on get a job there's money to be making
He knew what he was saying got used to obeying that's for sure
Since there's always more to be done you gotta use your feet to run right out the door
That's what they're there for

For years you been sleeping sleeping away the day
So much time up in your mind with nothing more to say
You gotta lift your heavy head and eat your daily bread before it molds
Cause it's time to make a new plan since you got too good of a hand just to fold
Now you know you been told
See you been playing and having too much fun
You've enjoyed playing but them playing days are done
Put your toys back in the box go fetch yourself some socks make sure they're clean
Cause you ain't gonna go no place if you keep that pretty face from being seen
Lord knows it should be seen

Do you hear that bell ringing well it ain't gonna stop
That bell's gonna keep ringing whether you want it to or not
So I guess you better get started gotta mend that broken heart and make it tick
Cause it's there for a reason and this could be the season to get fixed
You should try it just for kicks
C'mon now wake up Fancy wake up Fancy Dan
Get yourself up out of bed put a guitar in your hand
Don't you know you gotta get going gotta get them juices flowing righton through
Cause time keeps a-wasting and you got some chasing to do
You could use something to do
