"Get It While You Can" lyrics - ROBERT FINLEY

ROBERT FINLEY
"Get It While You Can"
(Dan Auerbach / Pat McLaughlin / John Prine)

Tryin' to love this woman
It's gonna break my back
If workin' for a living
Don't give me a heart attack

[Chorus:]
You gotta take it when you can get it
Get it while you can
Wrap it up in bacon, sizzle it in a pan
If it don't come in the mailbox
It might take a moving van
But you gotta take it when you can get it
And get it while you can

Didn't know the dealer
But I sure did know his daughter
But if I hadn'ta chased her
I never would've caught her

[Chorus:]
You gotta take it when you can get it
Get it while you can
Wrap it up in bacon, sizzle it in a pan
If it don't come in the mailbox
It might take a moving van
But you gotta take it when you can get it
And get it while you can

She had a disposition
Much like Gunga Din
Every time I'm going out
She'd be coming in

[Chorus:]
You gotta take it when you can get it
Get it while you can
Wrap it up in bacon, sizzle it in a pan
If it don't come in the mailbox
It might take a moving van
But you gotta take it when you can get it
And get it while you can

You gotta take it when you can get it
And get it while you can
