This is a great example of what “jump blues” was all about. This sub-genre of blues was upbeat and all about good times. It’s only stands to reason it started in the Great Depression and hit it’s heyday during WW2.
Snatch and Grab It Lyrics
Opportunity -- opportunity -- is knockin' at your door
Opportunity knocks but once
And it don't come back no more
So, grab it in the night, grab it in the day
Grab it right now, or it may get away; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
Opportunity -- opportunity -- is knockin' at your door
Opportunity knocks but once
And don't come back no more
Grab it in the east, grab it in the west
Grab it in the place you hold it best; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
So grab it on the left, grab it on the right
Grab it in the middle and hold it tight; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
So, grab it up high, grab it down low
Grab it real tight, don't let it go; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
Grab it when it's cold. Grab it when it's hot
Grab it in the place where you hold it tight; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
So, Grab it in the morning, grab it in the night
Hold it baby and hold it tight; you better
Snatch and grab it, Snatch and grab it
Better Snatch and grab it
Baby 'fore it gets away
