[Verse 1]
Honey on a teaspoon
Sugar in a bowl
An eager man's always an easy catch
Butter on the skillet
Whisky in a glass
To start a flame, you've got to light a match
Ooh, you got what he wants
You got what he wants
Ooh

[Chorus]
Got to get a hold, got to get a hold, get a hold of your man
Better get him while, better get him while, better get him while you can
Good to be a lion, good to be a lion instead of a lamb
Use what you got
Take the upper hand

[Verse 2]
Always be a lady
But tease him like a tramp
A temptation that's hard to resist
Treat him like a hero
Let him long to be your slave
Take advantage of your God given gift
Ooh, you know what he wants
You know what he wants
Ooh

[Chorus]
Got to get a hold, got to get a hold, get a hold of your man
Better get him while, better get him while, better get him while you can
Good to be a lion, good to be a lion instead of a lamb
Use what you got
Take the upper hand

[Bridge]
Generations before will testify it's true
Girl, you're gonna see how much he really loves you

[Chorus]
Got to get a hold, got to get a hold, get a hold of your man
Better get him while, better get him while, better get him while you can
Good to be a lion, good to be a lion instead of a lamb
Use what you got
Take the upper hand

LeAnn Rimes

Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (August 28, 1982) is a country singer who uses the stage name LeAnn Rimes. Born in Jackson, Mississippi she started performing at age 7 and had become a country star by age 13. Known for her vocals, many say she sounds a lot like Patsy Cline.

Rimes is a two-time Grammy winner and remains active in music. She’s gone through some troubles in the past few years, perhaps the result of such a young start in the business of music.
