Get a Little, Give a Little Z.Z. Hill

[Intro]
I’d like to see talk to fellas a little
Fellas if you think I’m trying to guide you
Just ask that lady there beside you
You see it’s an old fact
That women don’t have trouble
Trying to get a man to sock it to her
But she do have trouble trying to get him
To open up his pocket to her
If you wanna hear him holler
All you got to do is ask him for a dollar

[Verse 1]
Whether she’s a nurse, secretary
Waitress or clerk
She can be a typist, teacher
Beautician or any kind of work
When she pays a babysitter
A car no? and a wren?
And got a few things she needs
For herself, there’s nothing left

[Verse 2]
She’s gotta try to keep herself
Looking neat
She’s gotta buy clothes and food
For her kids to eat
They don’t show it
If they walk down the street
Some of those women
Don’t have a thing at home to eat
