Ray Charles - Them That Got

I've gotten down to my last pair of shoes
Can't even win a nickel bet
Because, ah them that's got are them that gets
And I ain't got nothin yet
I'm sneakin in and out duckin' my landlord
All I seem to do is stay in debt
Because,
ah them that's got yeah are them that gets
And I tell you all I ain't got nothin' yet
That old sayin them
that's got are them that gets
Is somethin I can't see
If ya gotta have somethin
Before you can get somethin
How do ya get your
first is still a mystery to me
I see folk with long cars and fine clothes
That's why they're called the smarter set
Because they manage to get
When only them that's got supposed to get
And I ain't got nothin yet

That old sayin them
that's got are them that gets
Is somethin I can't see
If ya gotta have somethin
Before you can get somethin
How do ya get your first is still
a mystery to me
I see folk with long cars and fine clothes
That's why they're called the smarter set
Because they manage to get
When only them that's got supposed to get
And I ain't got nothin yet
Whoah, I tell you all
I ain't found nothing yet.
You know I just don't understand it
I can't seem to get a nickle
or a dime for a cup of coffee
I need a hamburg- in fact a hot dog
wouldn't be too bad
I would just be grateful if I could get
my hands on most anything

Ray Charles, Them That Got

My favorite Ray Charles song, which is inexplicably nowhere to be found on itunes. Copied from Ray Charles Greatest Hits LP.
