Them That Got Lyrics - Ray Charles: Ultimate Hits Collection - Ray Charles

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 

(bridge) 

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. 

(spoken) 

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
