Taking Everything

Lyrics

[Intro: Spoken] To my heart To my car To my crib To my kids Everything [Verse 1] Never thought you bring me so much pain Lord knows I tried to keep you happy girl in every way Out on the road doing my thang Trying to keep you laced Trying to keep a smile upon your face girl Was all my happiness in vain? Or did I place in you a little too much faith? Now nothing but memories Never though that this would be The price I had to pay [Chorus] You took my heart (yes you did) You took my car (yes) You took my crib, yes, you did (yes you did) Got the nerve to take my kids Got the nerve to take my kids Took my love (all my love) And my life (all my life) Girl, you took my soul (all of my soul) Taking everything from me Taking everything from me You took my heart, girl, you took my car And you took my crib, tryin' to take my kids Girl, you took my love, then you took my soul Taking everything, everything, everything, everything Everything! [Verse 2] And now I'm sitting all alone Trying to figure out where you and I went wrong You know it makes me wanna cry Just thinking about it makes me wanna Lay down and die For the life of me I don't know how That you could take for granted And disregard our sacred vows Now nothing but memories Never though that this would be The price I had to pay [Chorus] You took my heart Girl, you took my, my car Tryin' to take my crib, girl You got the nerve to take my kids Got the nerve to take my kids And take my love, love, love, love And my life, girl, you took my soul, yeah Taking everything from me Taking everything from me You took my heart, my car My car (Crib) my crib, my, my kids, my kids My love, soul Everything, everything, everything, everything Everything!! [Bridge] Now I ain't never been no fool I've always tried to keep my cool I was faithful and true, never bruised you or used you Even though sometimes you make me want to But I loved you You should try to understand, girl, I was your man My life was in your hands, baby, my love Was shinning over there but this wasn't part of your plan No, no, no, no What about the plans we had? Now you're gone and I'm just gonna be a weekend dad, baby Can I call you baby? Or is that just a passing thing, babe Listen to this sad song I sing, yeah What about the ring? What about the ring? [Chorus] Oh, ho!! Now you going away in my car Girl, you can have the crib But won't you give me back my kids? How am I supposed to live? Oh baby, without love, without love, babe She given me (my life) All my life, all my life I'd thought we'd live forever Said we'd be together And you would never, never, never, never, never never, never, ever, ever, leave, me Take my Heart, crib, cars, kids, love, life, souls from me My cars, heart, crib, kids, my kids and now You would never, never, never leave me, oh (my heart) Cars Crib, my kids My love, life Every You took everything
