Get It

[Chorus: Paul McCartney]

You've gotta get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it, don't forget it doesn't come around again

You've gotta get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it and you've gotta get it good

[Verse 1: Carl Perkins & Paul McCartney]

Once I had a little Spanish guitar

The neighbors told me I could go pretty far

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

[Chorus: Carl Perkins & Paul McCartney]

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

[Verse 2: Carl Perkins & Paul McCartney]

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 a lady demure

She came and she went

Without a single dent

[Chorus: Carl Perkins & Paul McCartney]

You've gotta get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it, don't forget it doesn't come around again

You've gotta get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it and you've gotta get it good

[Post-Chorus: Carl Perkins]

I hear you

Go, kid

[Chorus: Carl Perkins & Paul McCartney]

Come on, let's get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it, don't forget it doesn't come around again

You've gotta get it, mm-mm

You've gotta get it and you've gotta get it good
