I've Given 'Bout All I Can Take

David Allan Coe

I burned all the letters that you never wrote
I broke all the promises you never spoke
I swallowed my pride
Till I thought I would chokeGiven 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can takeYou want somebody
Guess, we all do
You've got a heart
That won't let it come trueAnd I never was one to fakeGiven 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can takeI cried over milk that never was spilled
And I've danced to waltzes
And you just stood still
Time is much too precious to killGiven 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can takeYou want somebody
Guess, we all do
You've got a heart
That won't let it come trueAnd I never was one to fakeGiven 'bout all I can take
I've given 'bout all I can take
Oh, I've given 'bout all I can take
