Can't Take It With You
Lyrics and Songs by Alan Parson Project - Go back

Well I symphathise completly
but there's nothing I can do
I am just a humble servant
with a message here for you
Well I know you have good reasons and
there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting
and he's leaving here with you
And you can't take it with you
no matter what you do
No you can't take it with you
Not the place you've going to

One more mile
one more road

one last bride
one less food

Well I sympathise completly
but there's nohing I can do
I can just a beying orders

I'm a people soul like you
Well you really are persuasive
but I'm heard it all before
And the boatman's getting restless
as he stands upon the shore
And you can't take it with you
no matter what you do
No you can't take it with you
not the place you're going to

Can't take it with you
Can't take it with you
Can't take it with you
