I keep on a' givin'

And i took all the takin'

I gave all my love to you

And i took all your hurt

I treated you so good

But you treated me like dirt

They say love is give and take

Now my poor heart is breakin'

I keep on a' givin'

And i took all the takin'

I always gave you everything

That i knew how to give i would for you

I treated you too good for my own good

Now i'm along and left forsaken

I keep on a' givin'

And took all the takin'

The giving and the takin'

Has caused my heart to break

I've given all that i can give

And i have taken all that i can take



The giving and the takin'

Has caused my heart to break

I've given all that i can give

And i have takin' all that i can take
