Can't Take It With You

Watched people spin out of control

Just trying to find a way up over the hill

Found myself down in a hole

I'd go and pick me out a devil if he'd make me a deal

Ooh-ooh

Desperation, temptation

Ooh-ooh

At my throat again

You can't take it with you, can't do without

Can't pull water from a dried-up spout, no

You take what they give you, spit it back out

Spin around the drain as it drains on down

No, you can't take it with you

No, you can't take it with you

And it's a damn shame how they're rigging the game

When all I ever tried to do was play fair

I've been kicked to the bottom every time I try to climb up

And you know they wanna keep me there

Ooh-ooh

Condescending conversations

Ooh-ooh

Oh, my patience is wearing thin

You can't take it with you, can't do without

Can't pull water from a dried-up spout, no

You take what they give you, spit it back out

Spin around the drain as it drains on down

No, you can't take it with you

Aren't you so happy to take what we give you?

Aren't you so happy to take what we give you?

But you can't take it with you, can't do without

Can't pull water from a dried-up spout, no

You take what they give you, spit it back out

Spin around the drain as it drains on down

No, you can't take it with you

No, you can't take it with you

No, you can't
