"Give What You Take"
Don't expect a miracle to happen while you sleep
It's too bad now, if you're sad now,
You have to get up on your feet
You've got to give what you take
And baby take what you get
I'm gonna give what I take
And baby take what I get
Don't sit around pining for love that you can't have
You have to get up and with a little good luck
Now it won't seem half as bad
You've got to give what you take
And baby take what you get
I'm gonna give what I take
And baby take what I get
Don't you take offence now to the things that I just said
You'll start to smile if you think for a while
You can work it all out in your head
You've got to give what you take
And baby take what you get
I'm gonna give what I take
And baby take what I get
