Song title: Something you got

(Kenner) by Chris Kenner (Instant 3237), 1961

Something you got

Well it's something that you got babe
Make me work all day
There's something that you got little girl
Makes me bring home my pay
Something you got little baby
What it is I don't know
No I dont know
But I said Highhhhhh Hi
I said ho ho, I love her so

There something that you got girl
Makes you man work like a dog
Something that you got little babe
Makes me come home sweating dirty like a hog
Something that you got little girl
What it is I don't know
No I don't know
But I said highhhhh, hi, and a ho ho
I love her so

There's something that you got babe
Makes me work all day
Something that you got little girl
Makes me bring home all my pay
Something that you got little baby
What it is I dont know
No I don't know
But I said highhhhh hi, and a ho ho
I love it so

One more time
Its something that you got girl
Its something that you got
Its something that you got little girl
Its something that you got
Its something that you got little baby
What it I dont know
No I dont know
But I said highhhhh hi, I said ho ho
I said highhhhh hi, I said ho ho
I said highhhhh hi, I said ho ho
I just love it so

Notes: These lyrics reflect the 9-Mar-1974 Bruce Performance.
