Joe Tex - Hold What You've Got Lyrics
You had better hold onHold on to what you gotYou had better hold onHold on to what you got'Cause if you think nobody wants itJust throw it away and you will seeSomeone will have itBefore you can count1,2,3, yes they will, yes they willSpoken:Listen fellas, you know, it's not all the timethat a man can have a good woman.A woman that he can call his very own.A woman who'll stay right there at homeand mind the children while he's gone to work.A woman who'll have his dinner cooked whenhe comes home.Where some men make mistakes is when they goout and stay because they feel that no other manwants his woman but him. But listen:Sings:If you think no other man wants herJust throw her away and you will seeSome man will have herBefore you can count 1, 2, 3Yes, they will, yes, he willSpoken:Ha Ha! Listen girlsThis goes for you, too.Because you know I've seen so many womenWho've had so many good men in life.Men who would stand by 'em through thick and thin.Men who would go to work everyday and bring hometheir hard earned pay.Men who would give their women anything that theirlittle heart desired.Where some women make mistakesis when their men go out and let 'em play.They would stay because they felt that no otherwoman wanted him but her. Listen:Sings:If you think that no other woman wants himjust pitch him out in the streets and you will see.Some woman will have your manBefore you can count 1,2,3.Yes, you will, yes you wii-ll.~
