Them That Got

I′ve gotten down to my last pair of shoes Can't even win a nickel bet Because, ah them that′s got are them that gets And I ain't got nothin' yet I′m sneakin′ in and out duckin' my landlord All I seem to do is stay in debt Because, ah them that′s got (yeah) are them that gets And I tell you all I ain't got nothin′ yet That old sayin' them that′s got are them that gets Is somethin' I can't see If ya gotta have somethin′ Before you can get somethin′ How do ya get your first is still a mystery to me I see folk with long cars and fine clothes That's why they′re called the smarter set Because they manage to get When only them that's got supposed to get And I ain′t got nothin' yet That old sayin′ them that's got are them that gets Is somethin' I can′t see If ya gotta have somethin′ Before you can get somethin' How do ya get your first is still a mystery to me I see folk with long cars and fine clothes That′s why they're called the smarter set Because they manage to get When only them that′s got supposed to get And I ain't got nothin′ yet Whoa, I tell you all I ain't found nothing yet You know I just don't understand it I can′t seem to get a nickle or a dime for a cup of coffee I need a hamburguer in fact a hot dog wouldn′t be too bad I would just be grateful if I could get my hands on most anything
