You got no one you can count on, baby,
Bb F
not even your own brother.
C E
So if someone comes along,
F G#
he's gonna give you some love and affection.
(Chorus:)

Honey, get it while you can,

C Em
Don't you know when you're loving anybody, baby,

you're taking a gamble on a little sorrow.

But then who cares, baby,
