Papa Charlie Jackson — I Got What It Takes But It Breaks My Heart to Give It Away lyrics

Lyrics

I saved it up: since the Lord knows when
I ain’t saved a thing: because of any of you men
I’ve had it so long: I hate to lose it Because ever gets broke: I’ll be able to use it Now when you’re laying in jail: with your head in your
arms
And then you realize: your sweet mama’s gone
