[Verse]
There's a Cwoman out side with a red dress on
Giving me cause to recollect my G7mind
GShe don't Fsee me with my torn up Cblue jeans on
Wondering why her good ol' G7feller ain't got the CtimeC7  
[Chorus]
You better Fget it while you can
Brother, Cget it while you can
When I'm home from working I'm a hungry G7man
I Flike your biscuits in my Cgravy ma'am
Before the stores all close G7get it while you Ccan
[Verse]
When CI left home for to make my way
Seeking fortune, what did I G7find?
My Fpick-up trucks on blocks, my Clandlord changed my locks
Got my hat in hand G7standing in the welfare ClineC7  
[Chorus]
You better Fget it while you can
Brother, Cget it while you can
When I'm home from working I'm a hungry Gman
I Flike your biscuits in my Cgravy ma'am
Before the stores all close Gget it while you Ccan
[Verse]
There's a Crich man thinks I'm out to under him
Cause my car she don't shine when I G7drive
I've never Fdrawed a day of Cvacation time
I got a woman at home, she'll G7ease my trouble in CmindC7  
[Chorus]
So better Fget it while you can
Brother, C7get it while you can
When I'm home from working I'm a hungry G7man
I Flike your biscuits in my C7gravy ma'am
Before the stores all close G7get it while you Ccan
[Verse]
My Cmotorcycle run like greased up lightning, son
And I know where the fish are gonna bite all Gday
My Fpistol barks like that old Cbulldog there
I pay my bills, sing my Gsongs and I draw my CpayC7  
[Chorus/Outro]
You better Fget it while you can
Brother, Cget it while you can
When I'm home from working I'm a hungry G7man
I Flike your biscuits in my Cgravy ma'am
Before the stores all close G7get it while you Ccan
I Flike your biscuits in my Cgravy ma'am
Before the stores all close G7get it while you Ccan
