T.C.B.

[Chorus]
(T-C, T-C-B)
That's the way you get your thing together
(Takin' care of plenty business)
T-C, T-C-B
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)

[Verse 1]
Take life for instance (Today)
You know the game is push and show, yeah
'Cause whatever you do
You know you got to do (Do-Do)
Do-do it good
Though you were born poor (Poor, you were born poor)
Or rich to score
Get it together (And you'll go further)
I'm keepin' my own thing in tack, well

[Chorus]
T-C (T-C-B)
That's the way you get your thing together
(Takin' care of plenty business)
T-C, T-C-B
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)

[Verse 2]
Love is a funny thing
When you're young, in love
You place your loved one above
All else in your mind and life (In life)
So you get by, 'cause you think you're on your job
Get off your ego trip
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)

[Chorus]
T-C (T-C-B)
That's the way you get your thing together
(Takin' care of plenty business)
T-C, T-C-B
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)

[Post-Chorus]
Keepin' my own thing in tack, yeah
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
I'm keepin' my own thing (Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Get it on (Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Don't let the blues get you down
Keep it in tack

[Chorus]
(T-C, T-C-B)
That's the way you get your thing together
(Takin' care of plenty business)
T-C
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)

[Bridge]
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, well)

[Chorus]
T-C (T-C-B)
That's the way you get your thing together
(Takin' care of plenty business)
T-C, T-C-B
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)

[Post-Chorus]
Keepin' my own thing, yeah
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Don't let the blues get you down
(Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Keep it in tack (Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Keep it in tack, yeah (Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Don't let the blues get you down
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Don't let the blues get you down
Get it on (I'm keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Yeah-yeah (Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Get it, get it
Get it, kick it on down
(I'm keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Don't let the blues get you down
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown)
Don't let the blues get you down
Keep it in tack (Keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
Don't let it

[Outro]
(Don't let the blues get you down, clown) Hey-yeah
Don't let it (I'm keepin' my own thing in tack, jack)
I'm gonna get down
