We Gotta Get You A Woman

(album: Runt - 1970)

Leroy, boy, is that you?
I thought your post-hanging days were through
Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs
Tell no lies
You get wise
I tell you now, we're gonna pull you through
There's only one thing left that we can do

We gotta get you a woman
It's like nothing else to make you feel sure you're alive
We gotta get you a woman
We better get walking, we're wasting time talking now

Leroy, boy, you're my friend
You say how and I'll say when
Come and meet me down the street
Take a seat
It's my treat
You may not ever get this chance again
That empty feeling's just about to end

We gotta get you a woman
It's like nothing else to make you feel sure you're alive
We gotta get you a woman
We better get walking, we're wasting time talking now

Talking 'bout life and what it means to you
It don't mean nothing if it don't run through
I got one thing to say, you know it's true
You got to find some time to get this thing together, 'cause

We gotta get you a woman
It's like nothing else to make you feel sure you're alive
We gotta get you a woman
We better get walking, we're wasting time talking now

Talking 'bout things about that special one
They may be stupid, but they sure are fun
I'll give it to you while we're on the run
Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause
We got to get together with a woman who has been around
One who knows better than to let you down
Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town
And that she'll take some time to get this thing together, 'cause
Get this thing together, 'cause
Get this thing together, 'cause

We gotta get you a woman
We gotta get you a woman
We gotta get you a woman
And when we're through with you
We'll get me one too
