He's A Go-Getter

(الألبوم: Me And My Boys - 1969)

He's a go-getter, go-getter
When his wife gets off from work, well, he'll go get her

Now I've got a neighbor that lives down the road away
His wife holds down a steady job he don't turn his hand all day
I know that most of you will know the kind I'm talking about
The kind that rather than have to work he'd rather do without

But he's a go-getter, go-getter
When his wife gets off from work, well, he'll go get her

There's a group of men in the courthouse yard anytime that you go by
A playing checkers and trading knives and making jokes about their wives
Well, they'll wait all week for payday and hope that money's plenty
But the wife that worked those long hard hours never gets a penny

But he's a go-getter, go-getter
When his wife gets off from work, well, he'll go get her
When his wife gets off from work, well, he'll go get her
