Gettin' What You Want (Losin' What You Got)

Gettin' What You Want (Losin' What You Got)

(album: Relating - 1973)

You're always looking, you're always on the roam
When you can't take care of what you got at home
Women in the streets are looking good to you
But don't you know your woman is looking good to somebody, too?

Yeah, don't you know what you're doing
Getting what you want, but you're losing what you got
You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got, yeah

You think nobody wants her, that's where you're wrong
Your best friend was over last night, while you were gone
You've never take her out, you never have the time
'Cause you're too busy chasing other women and spending every dime

Don't you know what you're doing, yeah
Getting what you want, but you're losing what you got
You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got

Whatcha think your woman's doing when you stay out all night?
I guess you think she's sleeping, but she''s getting her thing uptight
You're never satisfied, always looking for something new
Oh, but while you're out there looking
Somebody's getting to you, you see

You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got
You're getting what you want, yeah, but you're losing what you got

And some of your fellows out there, you'd better listen to me right now (You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got)
Said, if you've got a good woman, you'd better go home and check on your love bone (You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got)
'Cause the love's in the streets, ain't gonna be as good as the love you got at home (You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got)
You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got
You're getting what you want, yeah, but you're losing what you got
And if you think nobody wants your woman, but you
Just keep on hanging on the corner with the fellas (You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got)
You're getting what you want, but you're losing what you got
You're getting what you want, yeah, but you're losing what you got
