The Lowest Pair - Take What You Can Get Lyrics

Give me long looks for my time dear
quote me an old lonesome song
you've been getting what you need
and I've been getting along

I get the feeling the lines here
have got to much in their way
give me long looks for my time, dear
if that's all you can say

You take what you can get when you can get it
you can't take it back now, you've already said it
I tried to love you and don't you forget it
you take what you can get, when you can get it

I'm starting to think that forever is moving through time on her own
gone soon as the wind shifts, and on and on and on and on
soft as your lips on my palest skin
that curls and shivers with your kiss
push me, but slowly, away dear
I can't go on like this

You take what you can get when you can get it
you can't take it back now, you've already said it
I tried to love you and don't you forget it
you take what you can get, when you can get it

I spent the night in Kentucky, smoking in my motel room and you left your home feeling lucky
in every way that you do

You take what you can get when you can get it
you can't take it back now, you've already said it
I tried to love you and don't you forget it
you take what you can get, when you can get it
