Lyrics
When you're in four, the room's in three And you know you play the drums a little too heavily Well, you say we can't blame you for getting carried away But remember, there's rules in this dance and you have to obey If you're doing your best You know what you have to do Doing your best You got a hell of a lot to prove You got to do the best of someone better than you You've got a knack for shifting gears I guess some things never change even after all these years But I know you were never the type to give up so easily Why don't you take my guitar? I bet you've still got the chops Come on, surprise me If you're doing your best You know what you have to do Doing your best You got a hell of a lot to prove You got to do the best of someone better than you You're still the girl I used to know You're counting off before the band is even ready to go But I wonder if you think the same of me And if the room's in four and I'm playing three But I'm doing my best I know what I have to do Doing my best I got a hell of a lot to prove Doing my best I know what I have to do Doing my best I got a hell of a lot to prove I got to do the best of someone better than you
