Lyrics
Get up
Encouragement to stand up.
And get your grandma outta here
Advising to remove the grandmother from the scene.
Pick up
Instruction to pick up something.
Old Jim is workin' hard this year
Reference to someone named Jim working hard.
And baby
Term of endearment, addressing a loved one.
Do the things he says to do
Encouragement to follow Jim's instructions.
Baby, if you're feeling good
Encouragement to feel good.
And baby if you're feeling nice
Encouragement to feel nice.
You know your man is workin' hard
Acknowledgment that the man is working hard and valuable.
He's worth a deuce
Emphasizing the worth of the man, using "deuce" as slang for two dollars.
Honey
Term of endearment, addressing a loved one.
Don't put your man behind his years
Advising not to make the man seem older than he is.
And baby
Encouragement to stop crying.
Stop cryin' all your tears
Addressing a loved one again.
Baby
Encouragement to follow instructions.
Do the things he says to do
Instruction to perform certain actions.
Do it
Baby, if you're feeling good
Encouragement to feel good.
And baby if you're feeling nice
Encouragement to feel nice.
You know your man is workin' hard
Acknowledgment that the man is working hard and valuable.
He's worth a deuce
Reiteration of the man's worth, using "deuce" as slang for two dollars.
And baby, if you're feeling good
Repetition of the encouragement to feel good.
Yes baby if you're feeling nice
Repetition of the encouragement to feel nice.
You know your man is workin' hard
Reiteration of the man's hard work and value.
Yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation.
