Get It Right The First Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't believe in first impressions For just this once I hope That looks don't deceive I ain't got time for true confessions [Pre-Chorus] Got to make the move right now Got to meet that girl somehow [Chorus] Get it right the first time That's the main thing I can't afford to let it pass You get it right the next time That's not the same thing Gonna make the first time last [Verse 2] I'm not much good at conversation I never was much good At coming on real strong But if all it takes is inspiration [Pre-Chorus] Then I might have just what it takes If I don't make no bad mistakes And I [Chorus] Get it right the first time 'Cause that's the main thing I can't afford to let it pass You get it right the next time That's not the same thing Gonna have to make the first time last [Bridge] I might find the courage Yeah, I might get up the nerve But if my timing ain't just right What purpose would that serve? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know How to say those first few words If I want to put myself in touch The first few moments mean so much [Verse 3] So I suppose it's now or never Before that woman Walks right out of my life Just let me pull myself together [Pre-Chorus] I've got to give it one good try Gotta take my chance tonight [Outro] Get it right the first time That's the main thing I can't afford to let it pass You get it right the next time That's not the same thing Gonna have to make the first time last
