All my life I been a po' boy   It's been hard to get a dime   Everythin' I got, I had to pay for it on time   But that's all right      Long as I got a toe hold   As long as I got a piece of you   As long as I got a toe hold   I can make it through      Listen up      I said, I went to my doctor   First thing he talked about this malnutrition   I'm not tryin' to be a fat man   I've got the looks, I'm after my ambition      Long as I got a toe hold   Long as I got a piece of you   Long as I got a toe hold   I can make it through      Oh, now give it to me, baby   A little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold   A little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold   Oh      So baby, if you're with me   I'll let the whole world be against me   I don't expect to ever get rich   You may find me diggin' in a ditch   But that's alright      Long as I got a toe hold   Long as I got a piece of you   Long as I got a toe hold   I can make it through      Oh, give it to me, baby   A little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold   Little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold      That's all I want, baby   A little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold   A little, little, little, little, little, little, little, little toe hold   Hey
