The Taker - Kris Kristofferson
Written by:Kris Kristofferson&Sheldon Silverstein
He's a giver he'll give her
The kind of attention that she's never known
He's a teacher he'll teach her
To open the doors that she can't on her own
He's a lover he'll love her
In ways that she never has been loved before
And he's a getter he'll get her
By gettin her into the world she's been hungerin' for
He's a charmer and he'll charm her
With money and manners that I never learned
He's a leader and he'll lead her
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn
He's a talker he'll talk her
Right off of her feet but he won't talk for long
Cause he's a doer and he'll do her
The way that I never
And damned if he won't do her wrong
'Cause he's a taker he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes
Yes he's a taker he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes
