Chris Cornell - Get It While You Can Lyrics

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
Who 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

Yeah, hey
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
Who 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 you turn your back on love, ooh
