John Mellencamp - Can You Take It Lyrics
I was courting a southern belleHer daddy was a rich un, tooSports car outside her doorShe was pretty good lookin, tooYou call me up, want me to come overWhen the servants are all in bedAnd she said,daddys on a flight tonightDoes that put any ideas in your head?I say to her:Chorus:Take it all the wayCan you really take it all the way downCan you really take it all the way downDown downDown down downSo we watch a little tvI drink up the family wineShe said,youre such a snake in the grass, boyBut tonight youre mineBut wait a minute, wait a minute babyAre you tryin to make a fool out of meShe said,ive seen men like you, beforeIve got a long family treeAnd she said to me:Chorus:Take it all the wayCan you really take it all the way downCan you really take it all the way downDown downDown down downAnd I say to myself, even a fool like me can be the loving kindEven a fool like me can be the loving kindChorus:Take it all the wayCan you really take it all the way downCan you really take it all the way downDown downDown down down
