J. J. Cale – Takin’ Care Of Business

I got myself together, got my tie on straight

Downtown, takin’ care of business on the street

Glen D’s got that old piano on the road

Blues is his bag, he’s a funky soul

Tim Drummond’s on bass, Jim Keltner’s on the drums

They’ll put it right on you for a shot of rhum

I’ll tell you right now it’s a funky beat

Downtown, takin’ care of business on the street

We ain’t very good but that’s beside the point

We’re all right here trying to rock this joint

Old mama Chip and the Spooner too

Trying to hack a meet with you

Christine Lakeland and Jimmy Karstein

He’s a rhythm fool, she’s a guitar queen

Let me tell you, my friend

Richard is hot on the beat

Downtown, takin’ care of business on the street

Oh, climb on board, Chad Hailey running ’round

It’s that Ashworth Dixie sound

Hurry up mama ’cause we’re all gonna meet

Downtown, takin’ care of business on the street
