Take It From 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'm not a wise man but I've learned a lot
In a fountain of knowledge I'm only a drop
But even a fool can give sound advice
It's free for the listening 'cause I paid the price
So take it from me
Don't leave her alone too many nights
Take it from me
Don't be the reason she cries
At first she'll be lonely and cry for you only
And then for the lovin' she needs
She'll find somebody new
Whose sure to take her from you
As sure as you took her from me
You might say I'm crazy to give you advice
But I've already lost her, I can't lose her twice
But, Lord, I still love her and she needs someone
Who'll do as I tell you and not as I've done
So take it from me
Don't leave her alone too many nights
Take it from me
Don't be the reason she cries
At first she'll be lonely and cry for you only
And then for the lovin' she needs
She'll find somebody new
Whose sure to take her from you
As sure as you took her from me
