I Got It

Well, there's a little man with a billy-goat cart
People say he's crazy but I say he's smart
You can see him every day goin' up and down the street
Always shouting about somethin' good to eat

I got it, oh baby I got it
Oh baby I got it
Can't do without it

Black-eyed peas and the buttered beans
Fresh milk and corn and the collard greens

I got it, oh baby I got it
Oh baby I got it
Can't do without it

It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it
It ain't what eat, it's the way that you chew it

I got it, oh baby I got
Oh baby I got
Can't do without it

Smoked ham, eggs and jam
Corn bread and the candied yams

Black-eyed peas and the buttered beans
Fresh milk and corn and the collard greens

I got it, oh baby I got it
Oh baby I got it
Can't do without it

It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it
It ain't what eat, it's thе way that you chew it

I'm hollerin' and I'm screamin', baby plеase don't go
I'm hollerin' and screamin', don't leave my heart alone
I got it, can't do without it
