* 4-bar intro

When you're a hustler, there is one thing you should know.
You have to hustle every day.
When you're a hustler, there's no time to take it slow.
Gather you suckers while you may.
Monday, you're hot.
Tuesday, you're not,
And that's the reason why they say...

You've got to use what you've got to get what you want
Before what you've got is gone.
You've got to reach for that ring while you're on that ride.
How long does that ride go on?
You've got to learn every dance, return every glance
While you have the chance to score.
You've got to use what you've got
To get what you want (to get what you want)
Before you ain't got no more.

* 4-bar break

Your clock starts running on the day that you were born.
It just keeps tick-tick-ticking on.
There's only so much time to blow your little horn
Before your time has come and gone.
Wednesday, you're new (Wednesday, you're new).
Thursday, you're through (Thursday, you're through).
It hpens sooner than you know.
(It hpens sooner than you know.)
That gravy train gets mighty slow,
(That gravy train gets mighty slow.)
But as I told you a moment ago,

You've got to think number 1 (number 1).
Be loyal to none (none)
If you want your sun to shine.
You've got to pick up a knack (a knack)
To stab in the back (a back)
As long as the back ain't mine.
You've got to use every friend as a means to an end.
Ain't that what a friend is for?
You've got to use what you've got
To get what you want (to get what you want),
So take my advice from this moment on.
(Remember to use what you've got)
Remember to use what you've got
(To get everything that you want.)
To get everything that you want.
(Before) before what you've go,
(Use what you've got to get what you want.
Use what you've got to get what you want
Before what you've got)
Before what you've got is gone,
What you've got is gone.
