In this world where people are fighting with each other And there's no one you can count on Not even your own brother
So if someone comes along And gives you genuine affection Get it while you can Get it while you can
When you love somebody You're taking the chance on sorrow And who knows, baby? We may not be here tomorrow
So if someone comes along And gives you genuine protection You better get it while you can (Get it while you can) Get it while you can (Get it while you can) Get it while you can Don't turn your back on love Don't turn your back on love Don't turn your back on love
Once I had a good woman But I did not count my blessings Wish she could hear me now I've learned a better lesson
So if someone comes along And gives you genuine affection Get it while you can (Get it while you can) Get it while you can (Get it while you can) You better get it while you can Don't turn your back on love Hey, hey Get it while you can (Get it while you can) Get it while you can (Get it while you can) You better get it while you can Don't turn your back on love
