You Can't Get That No More |
I went out to get some groceries the other day |
From my neighborhood grocery store |
And before I could open my mouth |
The grocery man said «No! |
You can’t get that no more» |
That’s what he said, you can’t get that no more |
He said, «I sold all I had the other day |
It ain’t me Mr. Jordan, it’s the OPA |
You just can’t get it, you got to do with what you got |
Ain’t go have no more for the duration, |
You got to be careful with your boots on» |
The hip cats used to stand on the corner in their zoot suits |
And them long chains hanging down all looking cute, |
But things is very different now since Uncle Sam has got some Japs to shoot |
You can’t do that no more |
You can’t do that no more |
No more standing on the corner day and night |
Cause Uncle Sam says you got to work or you got to fight |
So you can’t do that no more |
No you can’t do that no more |
You know the glamour gals stopped glamorizing |
They working in defense plants wearing slacks |
And some of them fine chicks is cutting out everyday |
Joining the wave, the spas and the wax |
Now fellas, you can’t get that no more |
I am telling you fellas, you just can’t get it |
You can’t jive these girls like you used to do |
Cause some of them is making more money than you |
I am telling you boys, you just can’t get that no more |
No you can’t get that no more |
You know the girls used to wake up every morning |
And say lord send me a handsome man |
One that is physically fit |
But uncle sam has got all of them now |
And the gals is got to take just what they can get |
You can’t get that no more |
Aint no need to be giggling girls |
You just can’t get it no more that’s all |
Girls you can’t be particular |
You’ve got to take what’s left |
Either them worn out 3A's or them beat up 4F's |
That’s all you just can’t get it no more |
No you can’t get that no more |
