lyrics

I'm Gonna Get It

I've been banging my head against the same old wall for such a long time
That American dream never even entered my mind
But I just found out the world needs something
You can only get from a good for nothing
I'm ready to deal and get a feel for how the other half lives

I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I got what they need
And I want what they got
I'm gonna get it

If there's something you need tell me, tell me, please please, I'll do it
Show me the hoop of fire and I will gladly jump through it
If I swear to change I'll disappoint you
You couldn't be beat, so I guess I've joined you
It's up to me and now I see that something's got to give

I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I got what they need
And I want what they got
I'm gonna get it

Somebody got plenty of money
I ain't got a buck
They think they're so lucky just to be so smart
When all they got is dumb luck

Sport car, sport coat
Race horse, speedboat
Easy job, high pay
Every day a holiday
New boots, new guitar
Buying drinks at the bar
Big house, lotta land
Playing in a rocking band

I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I got what they need
And I want what they got
I'm gonna get it
