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
