Used to be all so clear to me
I would have to scratch and steal just to make it (just to make it)
Barely scraping by while my friends were riding high
If I could not get my own, then I would take it (I would take it)
Lonely was that time, 'cause I could not spare a dime
Even as I held it in my hand
'Cause I thought with all my might, if I could squeeze it tight
It wouldn't slip away like it was sand, yeah, yeah
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it (if you're gonna keep it)
But there's enough for us all if you believe it
If you could give a damn, I know someone who needs it
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it
High from up above, I was living all alone
In my castle looking down below
I had climbed so far up, I felt I had so much
Still I remained so miserable
It ain't what it seems, yeah, the American Dream
Sweating after fortune and fame
And stood there by myself, no one else to share my wealth
I saw I only had myself to blame, yeah, yeah
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it (if you're gonna keep it)
There's enough for us all if you believe it
If you could give a damn, I know someone who needs it
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it, baby, yeah
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it (if you're gonna keep it)
But there's enough for us all if you believe it
If you could give a damn, I know someone who needs it
You gotta give it away if you're gonna keep it, oh yeah
Gotta give it away, ooh, yeah
Gotta give it away
If you could give a good goddamn, I know someone who needs it
You gotta gave it away if you're gonna keep it, baby, yeah
Gotta give it away, yeah (gotta give it away, gotta give it away)
If you're gonna keep it, yeah (if you're gonna keep it, if you're gonna keep it)
If you're gonna keep it, baby (if you're gonna keep it, yeah, if you're gonna keep it)
Gotta give it away (give it away, give it away)
Gotta give it away (gotta give it away, yeah) (yes)
