TILL MY GETUP HAS GOTUP AND GONE
Recorded by: Ernest Tubb

1. I'm gonna have some fun while I can
For someday I'm gonna be a much older man
I'm gonna love 'em and leave 'em
'Cause it ain't gonna be long
Till My Getup Has Gotup And Gone

2. I'm gonna spin my wheels while I can
Huntin' new ground, travelin' new land
And anywhere I hang my hat
Is gonna be my home
Till My Getup Has Gotup And Gone

BRIDGE:
When my Getup has got up and gone
I ain't gonna feel like I do now
My hair will turn to gray before long
I'll smile at the mem'ries, I'm makin' now

3. I'm gonna make the mark that all can see
I don't want anyone forgettin' me
And when I let my hair down
I'm gonna come on strong
Till My Getup Has Gotup And Gone

REPEAT bridge & 3
