Howard Tate Get It While You Can
In this world
where people
are fighting
with each other,
Noone to count on
Not even
your own brother.
Till someone
comes along
and gives you
genuine affection.
Chorus:
Get it while you can (Ooooooh)
Better get it while you can
Get it while you can
Don't turn your back on love
When you love
somebody
You're taking a chance
on sorrow.
Who knows, baby,
We may not, may not
be here tomorrow.
Should someone
comes along
and gives you
genuine protection
(Chorus)
I wanna tell you a little bit about myself.
Once I had a good woman
But I didn't
count my blessings.
Oh I wish she could hear me
to see, oh I've learned a bitter lesson.
So if someone
comes along
and gives you
genuine affection.
(Chorus 2x)
Don't turn your back on love.
