Just play an F blues...
That is |F|F|F|F|Bb|Bb|F|F|C|Bb|F| and then play C as A turnaround
Play it with a Ska upstroke, palm muting the chords
on the downstroke...
Lyrics:
F
Let's get moving into action
Let's get moving into action
Bb
If you last too slow, no satisfaction
F
There's something out there, that's the attraction
C Bb
If you hesitate now, that's a subtraction
F C
So, let's get moving girl into action
We take the 43 bus, we got no plans
The girl in the miniskirt, her name's Suzanne
The one with the hat whole boots is Charonne
And Carol is the one with the blonde wig on
And with the bullet .9 were going number one
And we don't need any money to have any fun
Let's get moving into action
Let's get moving into action
If you last too slow, no satisfaction
There's something out there, that's the attraction
If you hesitate now, that's a subtraction
So, let's get moving girl into action
We take the transbay through on the Richmond line
Leave at seven and at east bay by nine
We may run out of money tonight never out of time
Harmon street we kick it gonna (have to line)?
Its anybody's guess how late were gonna run
We go all night alright to midnight just begun
Let's get moving into action
Let's get moving into action
If you last too slow, no satisfaction
There's something out there, that's the attraction
If you hesitate now, that's a subtraction
So, let's get moving girl into action
Girl that showed up on the scene we tried to warn her
That her days were over and the ship was sunken
Respect to New York respect to London
But were from California and out stance is stronger
Were gonna dig dig dig in deep (the second crown)?
When the music come playing then you jump up jump down
If you hook up the speakers man well bring the sound
And the music will be heard from miles and miles around
We got songs of redemption songs of war
We got songs like this that can pack the dance floor
Let's get moving into action
Let's get moving into action
If you last too slow, no satisfaction
There's something out there, that's the attraction
If you hesitate now, that's a subtraction
So, let's get moving girl into action
