ray charles - them that got lyrics

Loading...

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

(bridge)

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

whoah, i tell you all
i ain’t found nothing yet.

(spoken)
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 hamburg- in fact a hot dog wouldn’t be too bad
i would just be grateful if i could get my hands on most anything
(fade)
