Lyrics
[Intro]
A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three, four
This here's a story about a house husband who
You know, just has to get out of the house
He's been lookin' at the
You know, the kids for days and days
He's been washin' the dishes and screwin' around
And watchin' Sesame Street
Till he's gone crazy!
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, blues around my head
No need to ask the reason why
Went to the kitchen and lit a cigarette
Blew my worries to the sky
[Chorus]
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out, yeah
[Verse 2]
If it don't feel right
You don't have to do it
Just leave a message on the phone
And tell 'em to screw it
After all is said and done
You can't go pleasin' everyone
So screw, ooh
Ooh
[Chorus]
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out, baby
I'm stepping out
[Verse 3]
The baby's sleeping, the cats have all been blessed
Ain't nothing doin' on TV, summer repeat
Put on my space suit, I got to look my best
I'm goin' out to do the city
[Chorus]
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out, babe
I'm stepping out, boogie
[Bridge]
One more
[Outro]
I'm stepping out, hold it down
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta get out
I'm stepping out, babe
Just for a while
Ain't been out for days
Gotta do it tonight
Gimme a break, gimme a break, gotta get out
Gotta get out
Just for a while
Just for the night
I'll be in before one, or two, or three, goodbye!
