Lyrics Can You Take It - John Mellencamp
I
was
courtin′
a
Southern
belle
Her
daddy
was
a
rich
'un,
too
Sports
car
outside
her
door
She
was
pretty
good
looking,
too
Call
me
up,
want
me
to
come
over
When
the
servants
are
all
in
bed
And
she
said,
uh
Daddy
on
a
flight
tonight
Does
that
put
any
ideas
in
your
head
I
say
to
her
Take
it
all
the
way
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down,
down,
down
Down,
down,
down
So
we
watch
a
little
TV
I
drink
up
the
family
wine
She
said,
you′re
such
a
snake
in
the
grass,
boy
But
tonight,
you're
mine
Wait
a
minute,
wait
a
minute,
baby
Are
you
tryin'
to
make
a
fool
out
of
me
She
said,
I′ve
seen
men
like
you
before
I
got
a
long
family
tree
And
she
said
to
me
Take
it
all
the
way
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down,
down,
down
And
I
say
to
myself
Even
a
fool
like
me
can
be
the
lovin′
kind
Even
a
fool
like
me
can
be
the
lovin',
lovin′
kind
Take
it
all
the
way
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down,
down,
down
Take
it
all
the
way
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down
Can
you
really
take
it
all
the
way
down,
down,
down
