Get A Move On
Grandpaboy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m just a honky with a hat on
Move your ass to the sidewalk
And ride your donkey till I get off
And I get a move on
I gotta get a move on
You won’t want me now to stay long
Honey, come on, let me drink your spit
Then I get a move, get a move on
Gotta get a move on
Gotta get long gone
I gotta get a move on
I’m just a honky in a parking
I’ll move my ass to the sidewalk
And ride your little donkey till I drop, drop, drop
Get a move, get a move on
