You Can Count on Me to Do My Part - Mose Allison

Let’s talk it over, let’s get get it straight

Don’t let th' situation escalate

You know there’s always problems when a man is wrapped up in his art

But don’t you worry baby you can count on me to do my part

You keep on working, I’m looking round

Don’t let your girlfriend put me down

You know it’s tough these days for a proud man to make a start

But don’t you worry baby you can count on me to do my part

You wash the dishes, I’ve gotta run

You know that night life ain’t such fun

Now don’t wait up for me 'cause I know you need your rest, sweetheart
