[Verse 1]
I'm gonna show you
That good guys don't always win
I'm gonna show you
The brighter side of livin' in sin
So when you're six feet under
You won't wonder why
Just 'cause you gotta halo
Don't mean that you can fly
[Pre-Chorus]
If you thought it was over, you're way off track
You made a blunder
[Chorus]
And you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (I'm back and I'm on the right track)
This ain't no hit or miss
I'm gonna get my way (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (Put me back and I'm on the right track)
You're my first witness
And I'm here to stay
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna show you
Good guys always finish last
Speaking of virtue
Being nice is a thing of the past
When I want something done
I'll say it with a gun
Just 'cause you're an angel
Don't mean you're havin' fun
[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanted to thank you for what you lack
Hope they don't hang you
[Chorus]
'Cause you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (I'm back and I'm on the right track)
This ain't no hit or miss
I'm gonna get my way (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (Put me back and I'm on the right track)
You're my first witness
And I'm here to stay
[Bridge]
A tisket, a tasket, you lost your yellow basket
[Spoken]
You don't know if you want to hit me or kiss me
[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanted to thank you for what you lack
Hope they don't hang you
[Chorus]
'Cause you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (I'm back and I'm on the right track)
This ain't no hit or miss
I'm gonna get my way (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause you put me back (Put me back)
Back in business (Put me back and I'm on the right track)
You're my first witness
And I'm here to stay
[Outro]
(He's back in business now)
Gimme a hand and I'll take a bow
(He's back in business now)
Bah dah, buh dah dah, buh dah dah, buh dah dah
(He's coming back in style)
Gimme an inch and I'll take a mile
(He's back and my, oh, my)
Buh dah, buh dah dah, buh dah dah, buh daah
(He's back in business now)
Gimme a hand and I'll take a bow
