Doing What I Can (With What I Got)

(by Paul Guzzone & Kevin Bacon)

Boom, boom, boom the bass filled the room
When a fight spilled in from the alley out back
A beer mug shattered – The people scattered
A riot, a rumble, it got rough and tumble
But I made it out of there with my pride intact
I try to stay cool
When the weather gets hot
Doin’ What I Can With What I Got

Knock, knock, knock, gave my baby a shock
When later that night I was at her back door
She smiled. she winked, she handed me a drink
Moanin’, mumblin’ we went rollin’ and tumblin’
Fell off of her couch and on to the floor
I said work with me honey
I’m tryin to hit the spot
Doin’ What I Can With What I Got

Doin what I can, tryin’ to make a livin’
Workin’ for the man, lookin’ for a win and
Tryin’ to land a slam dunk shot
Doin’ What I Can With What I Got

Hey, hey, hey! I get up everyday
Workin’ on a scheme to beat the machine
‘Cause even a beginner can end up a winner
If you bring it and work it
Don’t short circuit
It don’t hurt to dream
You know what I mean

Nothin’ to lose so I’ll give it a shot
I’m doin’ what I can with what I got

I’m makin my moves – I plan and I plot
Doin’ What I Can With What I Got

You’re gonna see me kickin back on my yacht
Doin’ what I can with what I got
