Biography:
The Rutles is a pop group from London, England. A spoof of the massively popular and influential rock group The Beatles, The Rutles was the brainchild of Neil Innes, former member of The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, and ex-Monty Python member Eric Idle. The four official members of The Rutles were Dirk McQuickly (Eric Idle), Ron Nasty (Neil Innes), Stig O'Hara (Ricky Fataar) and Barry Wom (John Halsey), parodies of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, respectively.

[Verse 1]
A G D
Working up a fever in a one-horse town was a Jockey by the name of Joe
A
He didn't have a lot of what you might call "luck"
G D
But he had a lot of "get-up-and-go"
[Chorus]
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
[Verse 2]
A
Tall in the saddle in a one-horse town
G D
Joey knew someday he'd hit the road
A G D
He traded with a dealer for a pick up truck and was lookin' for a medium-load
[Chorus]
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
[Verse 3]
A
Cruisin' down the highway, doin' sixty-five,
G D
In the middle of the double-white line.
A
Foot down on the gas and his head in the clouds.
G D
He didn't see the 'one way' sign.
[Chorus]
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
A G D
Get up and go, Get up and go, Get up and go back home
