Get It While You Can

In this world where people are fighting with each other

Nobody to count on, not even your own brother

So, if someone comes along who gives you genuine love and affection

Get it while you can, get it while you can

Get it while you can, don't you turn your back on love

When you love somebody, you're taking a chance on sorrow

But who knows, baby, we may not be here tomorrow

So, if someone comes your way with love and protection

Get it while you can, get it while you can

Get it while you can, don't you turn your back on love

I want to 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, I've learned a bit of lessons

So, if someone brings you love, don't throw it away like I did

Get it while you can, better go on and get it while you can

Get it while you can, babe, don't you turn your back on love

Get it while you can, ooh, get it while you can

Better go on and get it while you can
