A7                    B7
 Once I had a little spanish guitar,
E7                              F#7
 the neighbours told me I could go pretty far.
Eb?                 A7  B7                  E7
 Well, I came and I went  and my guitar got bent.

But I discovered that the people who love
are what we need if we?re to get up above it all.
And that?s that unless the world is flat.

I wanna get it ,mm , mm.
I wanna get it just in case
it doesn?t come around again.
I wanna get it ,mm , mm.
I wanna get it and I wanna get it good.

Pardon me if I?ve been misunderstood.
I wanna get it while the going is good.
The telephone rang about a song I sang.

The life of Cadillac and ultra for sure,
is automatic for the Lady Demure.
She came and she went without a single dent.

You?ve got to get it, mm , mm....

Come on, let?s get it, mm , mm....

You?ve got to get it, mm , mm....
