Lyrics

[Intro] This is something called "Brownstone" [Verse 1] I get up around 7 Get outta bed around 9 And I don't worry about nothin', no Because worrying's a waste of my time [Verse 2] Show usually starts around 7 We go on stage around 9 Get on the bus about 11 Sippin' a drink and feelin' fine [Chorus] We've been dancin' with Mr. Brownstone He's been knockin', he won't leave me alone Woah, no, no, woah, he won't leave me alone [Pre-Chorus] I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it So the little got more and more I just kept tryna get a little better Little better than before Used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it Little got more and more Just kept tryna get a little better Said, a little better than before [Chorus] We've been dancin' with Mr. Brownstone He's been knocking, he won't leave me alone Woah, no, no, he won't leave me alone Huh! [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Now I get up around whenever I used to get up on time But that old man, he's a real motherfucker Gonna kick him on down the line [Pre-Chorus] I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it Little got more and more I just kept tryna get a little better Said, a better than before I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do it Little got more and more I just kept tryna get a little better Said, a little better than before [Chorus] Been dancin' with Mr. Brownstone He's been knocking, motherfucker, motherfucker won't leave me alone Oh, no, oh, he won't leave me alone Oh, leave me alone [Outro] Stuck it in the bindle and I shot it in the middle And it drove outta my mind I shoulda known better, said, I wish I never met her Said, I leave it all behind Yowza This is somethin', uh That the rest of the band put together Ended up bein' a lot of fun With Mr. Izzy Stradlin takin' the lead on vocals Mr. Invisible of GNR This is somethin' we, uh, call "Dust N' Bones" Should've made me that list, homes [?]
