Lyrics
Taker
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's a giver he'll give her the kind of attention that she's never known
He's a helper he'll help her to open the doors that she can't on her own
He's a lover and he'll love her in ways that she's never been loved before
He's a getter he'll get her by gettin' her into the world she's been hungering for
He's a charmer he'll charm her with money and manners that I never learned
He's a leader he'll lead her across pretty bridges he's plannin' to burn
He's a talker he'll talk her right off of her feet but he won't talk for long
Cause he's a doer and he'll do her
The way that I'd never damned if he won't do her wrong
He's a taker he'll take her to places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul she gives him he'll take her for granted
Take off and leave her taken all of her pride when he goes
He's a taker he'll take her...
