Get All You Can Take

I didn't know 'bout the modern ways of life, I didn't really care 

I never gave a damn about the future, I never got my share 

Somebody said, boy your time's a wastin', you're movin' much too slow 

So many things in life worth tastin', so much you oughta know - look out 



Get down, fool around, if you got half a chance, you take it 

Ooh yeah, stand your ground, you gotta bend the rules to make it 

Hold tight, see the light, think of all the dues you're payin' 

So true, I'm tellin' you, wise up, can't you hear me sayin' 



You gotta get all you can take - sing along, gotta keep on hummin' 

Stop waitin' for your lucky break - stop waitin', wastin' time 

You gotta get all you can take - doncha know I'm gonna take what's mine 



People lookin', eyes wide open, tell me what you see 

Bodies tired, minds 'a chokin', you gotta set 'em free 

Don't think about the race they're runnin', they'll never let you in 

With all the rules, it's a race of fools, and you can never win - look out 



Get down, fool around, think of all the dues you're payin' 

Oh yeah, stand your ground, wise up, can't you hear me sayin' 



You gotta get all you can take - sing along, gotta keep on hummin' 

Stop waitin' for your lucky break - stop waitin', wastin' time 

You gotta get all you can take - doncha know I'm gonna take what's mine

(Yeah you know what I'm talking about, ah just take a look around you) 



You gotta get all you can take - sing along, gotta keep on hummin' 

Stop waitin' for your lucky break - stop waitin', wastin' time 

You gotta get all you can take - doncha know I'm gonna take what's mine
