In this world where people
are fighting with each other,
No one to count on
Not even your own brother.
'Til someone comes along
and gives you genuine affection.
Chorus:
Get it while you can (Ooooooh)
Better get it while you can
Get it while you can
Don't turn your back on love
When you love somebody
You're taking a chance on sorrow.
Who knows, baby,
We may not, may not be here tomorrow.
Should someone comes along
and gives you genuine protection
(Chorus)
I wanna tell you a little bit about myself.
Once I had a good woman
But I didn't count my blessings.
Oh I wish she could hear me
to see, oh I've learned a bitter lesson.
So if someone comes along
and gives you genuine affection.
(Chorus 2x)
Don't turn your back on love.
