Get Mine Lyrics by Davis

2016

When I was young my mother said to me
"You can grow up and be anything you wanna be"
Well now that I′m older I'm doing what I can
But everybody round me want me to be like them
When people tell me that I gotta fall in line
I say, "You go get yours, I′ll go get mine"

When I was young my father said to me
"You gotta work hard if you wanna succeed"
Well my only job give me dirty fingernails
And I'm still waiting on a check in the mail
I asked the boss if he'd pay me on time
He just said, "You go get yours, I′ll go get mine"

Oh no one told mе there′d be days likе these
I never pray but now I'm on my knees
I looked to God to get some advice
He said, "You go get yours and I′ll go get mine"

When I was young my teacher said to me
"You gotta go to college, get your bachelor's degree"
Well I went to school on a government loan
But I′ll be paying for it till I'm 74
I asked Uncle Sam why he sweat me all the time
He said, "You go get yours, I′ll go get mine"

And the people on the TV they keep on telling
Me, "You gotta fall in love if you wanna be happy"
Well I think my girl just met another guy
Cause every time I see her she won't look me in the eye
She told me, "Boy, I wish you woulda tried"
I just said, "You go get yours baby, I'll go get mine"

Oh no one told me there′d be days like these
I never pray but now I′m on my knees
I looked to God to get some advice
He said, "You go get yours and I'll go get mine"

All of your life you gotta stay on the grind
I′d help you get yours but it won't help me get mine
Oh no one told me there′d be days like these
I never pray but now I'm on my knees
I looked to God to get some advice
He said, "You go get yours, I′ll go get mine."
