He’s a Go Getter

[Verse 1]

He's a go getter, go getter

When his wife gets off from work, he'll go get her

Now I've got a neighbor that lives down the road a ways

His wife holds down a steady job, he don't turn his hand all day

I know that most of you will know the kind I'm talkin' about

The kind that rather than have to work, he'd rather do without

[Interlude]

But he's a go getter, a go getter

When his wife gets off from work, he'll go get her

[Verse 2]

There's a group of men in the court house yard any time that you go by

Playing' checkers and trading odds and making' jokes about their wives

They wait all week for pay day and they hold the money's plenty

And the wife that's worked those long hard hours never gets a penny

[Outro]

But he's a go getter, a go getter

When his wife gets off from work, he'll go get her

Yes he's a go getter, a go getter

When his wife gets off from work, he'll go get her

He's a go getter, a go getter

When his wife gets off from work, he'll go get her
