Toe Hold Composer(s): Isaac Hayes - David Porter First release by: Johnnie Taylor - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
All my life I been a po' boy It's been hard to get a dime Everythin' I got, umm, hmm I had to pay for it on time, but that's all right
Long as I got a toehold As long as I got a piece of you As long as I got a toehold I can make it through
Now listen I said I went to my doctor First thing he talked about is malnutrition I'm not tryin' to be a fatman I've got to look after my ambition
Long as I got a toehold Long as I got a piece of you Long as I got a toehold I can make it through
Oh, now give it to me baby A little little little little little little little little little toehold A little little little little little little little little little toehold Oh!
So, baby!, if you're with me I'll let the whole world be against me I don't expect to ever get rich You may find me diggin' in a ditch
Long as I got a toehold Long as I got a piece of you Long as I got a toehold I can make it through
Oh, give it to me baby A little little little little little little little little little toehold A little little little little little little little little little toehold Owwww! That's all I want baby I want a little little little little little little little little little toehold I want a little little little little little little little little little toehold Owwww!...
