Give My Heart To You

I gave two teeth in a teenage brawl

For a girl whose name I can't recall

Then we broke up

I gave a knee to the football team

Chasing that high school state champ dream

We almost won

I gave junior college almost a year

Then I gave a Greyhound twenty bucks

And that's how I got here

I give all my money for a slice of daily bread

I give forty honest hours to a boss I never met

And I gave my soul to Jesus at the age of twenty-two

So there ain't much left to offer

But I give my heart to you

I gave a beard and a head of hair

To a boot camp corporal with a barber's chair

At Camp LeJeune

I gave Uncle Sam what he bargained for

Twenty-four months, not a minute more

I just didn't fit in

Then I gave a high school friend of mine a call

And we gave a body shop a try

'Til we gave up last fall

I gave a beard and a head of hair

To a boot camp corporal with a barber's chair

At Camp LeJeune

I gave Uncle Sam what he bargained for

Twenty-four months, not a minute more

I just didn't fit in
