Might Just Take Your Life Lyrics

Whitesnake

(blackmore/coverdale/lord/paice)
I got more than I asked for,
There aint nothin I need.
I took all till I had more,
Im always takin the lead
Old man shakin dice down on the street,
Tryn to make a livin somehow
But Im really sure about gettin things sorted out
And Im gettin ready right now
You cant hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life
Ive been called by many names
And all of them are bad
I can take it all the same,
Its all Ive ever had
Ive got somethin that you cant get
But one thing you can see
Gettin there aint easy
But it sure was hard for me
You cant hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life
Every time I take a look
Theres someone close behind
They never used to make a pass,
The things that crossed their minds
Now they tell me that its all right
And they want to be my friend
Theyre ridin on my back
When is it goin to end?
You cant hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life
Got more than I asked for,
Got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
Got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
Got more than I need
