George Washington Rules

I get up every morning

I jump right out of bed

I ain't even got time to comb my hair

Across my head

You know that if my mama saw me

She probably tell me what to do

Mama I know just where I'm going

Following the George Washington rules

I came across a memory

It's me but long ago

I did everything wrong

But at that time I didn't know

I guess I had to learn the hard way

Now everyone thinks I'm a fool

Still there's a chance to make things better

Following the George Washington rules

[guitar solo]

I was running round in circles

Now I'm walking straight ahead with a plan

Used to be bore, won't be any more

Found how to behave like a cheerful, decent man

Today there ain't no sunshine

The clouds won't go away

Sometimes I don't know what to think

Or what the hell to say

I play my guitar till the night time

To calm my soul don't blow a fuse

And feed my heart some inspiration

Just reading George Washington's rules

[guitar solo]

I was running round in circles

Now I'm walking straight ahead with a plan

Used to be bore, won't be any more

Found how to behave like a cheerful, decent man

No George he wasn't perfect

He made some bad mistakes

But that don't mean we gotta throw the statues

In the lake

I gonna get back where I started

Before the world got so confused

So let me do it like I wanna

Just reading George Washington's rules

Mama I know just where I'm going

Following the George Washington rules

Still there's a chance to make things better
