You Can't Take Me
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.
I've been wasting all my time
And I've been drinkin' all that wine
And I've been drinkin' all that beer
And I've been sheddin' all these tears
I can't go but you can't stay
Your not gonna take me out that way
Chorus:
Because you can't take me
I said you can't take me
No you can't take me anywhere I don't wanna go
I've been down this road before
And I just can not care no more
I can't see what you can see
I'm too busy bein' me
See I can't go and you can't stay
Your not gonna take me out that way
(Chorus)
I don't need to save no face
I can't wait to leave this place
I've been fooled by lesser things
And I don't care what tomorrow brings
See I can go but you can't stay
Your not gonna take me out that way
(Chorus)
