Testo Git On Up and Do It - Rufus Thomas
Testo della canzone Git On Up and Do It (Rufus Thomas), tratta dall'album Funkiest Man Alive: The Stax Funk Sessions 1967-1975
If you wanna be somebody
You can't mess around
If you want to be somebody
You can't mess around
I want y'all to listen
While I sing you this song
Listen to the voice of experience
I won't tell you nothing wrong
If you get a toehold
You better hold on if you can
But if you lose that toehold
Back up and try it again
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
If you wanna be somebody
Tell you what you gotta do
You got to go to it
'Cause to it ain't coming to you
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
Get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
So move up
George Washington Carver
He got in a rut
But he came up with a whole lot of things
From a plant called a peanut
And there was a Martin Luther
Who didn't give up the fight
He's the one that started us on
The road to civil rights
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
You can't just sit there
You got to get on up
You can't just sit there, no
You got to get on up
Get on up and move
Get on up and move
Get on up and move
Get on up and move
Hangin' out on the corner
Can cause some tears
You can find more trouble in five minutes
Than you can get out in twenty years
You got to get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
Get on up and do it
That's all there is to it
Get on up and do it
Get on up
Get on up and do it
Get on up and do it
