The Way You Can Get Lyrics

I know the way you can get

When you ain’t had a drink of love-when you can’t see the stars above

When people are greedy and mean-when only the worst can be seen

When life take an ugly turn-when you refuse to learn

When you lost what you had before-when yer lost in another store

When you sleep in a strangers place-when you can’t wash yer face

When the wine is too sweet too soothe- when the groove is to blue to move

When the bread is too stale to share-when the night is too long to care

When trouble just follows you-when sorrow just swallows you

When worry knocks on yer door-when sadness sleeps on yer floor

When the soul hears a lonely sound-when God don’t come around
