Take my hand sweet darlin' wipe that from off your face

I don't love anyone but you no one can take your place but

Sometimes I worry darlin' the way

You seem to hoard my love

Just take what you need don't empty out the store

Just take what you need 'cause I ain't got much more

Took a walk in the country some peace of mind to find

Wire fences everywhere no place to rest my mind

Seems like a shame to me the way

Some people hoard their land

Just take what you need don't empty out the store

Just take what you need 'cause I ain't got much

Took a look in the paper While tryin' to eat a bite

You know I read the evening news and lost my appetite

Some have the nerve to ask for more respect from you and me

Just take what you need don't empty out the store

Just take what you need 'cause I ain't got much

Take my hand sweet darlin' wipe that from off your face

I don't love anyone but you no one can take your place but

Sometimes I worry darlin' the way you seem to hoard my love

Just take what you need don't empty out the store

Just take what you need 'cause I ain't got much more
