lyrics

Gotta Git While The Getting’s Good c2013 by Kenny Hines

Sittin’ on my suitcase, holdin’ my guitar
Gotta find me a new place; somewhere very far
From my so-called friends, & their backstabbin’ grins… aww Lawd
Things just ain’t working out here, and I wish I understood
Good God Almighty! I Gotta Git While The Getting’s Good!

No jobs; they just ain’t hirin’; this economy is dyin’
Still I keep applyin’, but there ain’t no use in tryin’
Ain’t got no woman; they don’t want a good man
Them gossipers don’t know me; they just don’t understand
They say if you’re good you get back what you give, well I really wish I would
Good God Almighty! I Gotta Git While The Getting’s Good!

(bluesy guitars)

Well…. !
So I’m packin’ up my old car
Gonna drive down south, ‘till the road runs out; then I’ll wish upon a star
All I really know, is pretty soon it’s gonna snow
So, goodbye everybody, now I really gotta go!

Gotta get on outta here, now; I’m so misunderstood
Good God Almighty! I Gotta Git While The Getting’s Good!

Good God Almighty! I Gotta Git While The Getting’s Good!
