Nat Stuckey My Can Do Can't Keep Up With My Want To lyrics

Well, it's sad but true
And some day it'll happen to you
When your can do can't
Keep up with your want to

I ain't never been much of a lover
And it never really bothered me none
With the whole world full of adorable women
I figured I could catch me one

But lately I've got a problem
And I don't know what to do
You see my can do can't
Keep up with my want to

Well, my want to wants me
To do everything I used to do
But my can do can't

Keep up with your want to

I met a Dolly in a roadside tavern of the time
And the place was right
We had a table in the corner
Where the lights were low
And the band was picking out of sight

We were dancing to a fast little ditty
But before I got half through
I found my can do can't
Keep up with my want to

Well, my want to wants me to
Well, it's sad but true
