paroles de chanson Can't Take It With You When You Go - Mike Love

You can't take it with you when you go
No you can't take it with you when you go
Collect your silver, collect your gold
But in the end what will you have to show
'Cause you can't take it with you when you go
I was born at quarter to two in the morning
In the best suit I ever worn
And with my first breath I sang out a warning
To the world I had arrived
And I cried out when I first saw the light
I was blinded
I had been so in Love with the darkness
But adjustment is just part of life
And everywhere I looked everything was changing
Every moment a new face was appearing
And steering me, clearing my path to the next phase of the maze of unfolding awakening,
Shaking me
And then I drank from the heart of my Mother
And heard the song from the soul of my Father
And further I flew and into this new world of opportunity, moving me, forming and
Informing me so
Tell me, teach me, show me everything I need to know
'Cause you can't take it with you when you go
I was a punk little teenager, tormenting my Mother with all the mistakes I made
But I never once put a possession over a person that's just how I was raised
And I labored in a full time job for minimum wage
Yeah but my savior was this guitar said aloha to these new slave traders
I'll never again waste another drop of perspiration on a corporation, no matter what they pay
And I don't need no Christmas bonus I don't need no raise
Cause it won't do you no good in your grave
No it won't do you no good in your grave
Break your back, go on, slave away
To count your coins up at the end of the day
But it won't do you no good in your grave
And when I grew into what they refer to as a man, I was told I had to have a plan
Never really understood why, but I told them I would try
Seems this system is just designed to make you want shit you don't really need
Fill your heart with greed
Plant a seed of separation in your soul
Just remember happiness can not be bought or sold
And you can't take it with you when you go
Children listen please, let me say my piece
Growing up is a disease, don't you catch it
Can't take it with you when you go
No you can't take it with you when you go
Collect your silver, collect your gold
But in the end what will you have to show
'Cause you can't take it with you when you go
You can take my Love with you when you go
And I'll take your Love with me when I go
And hand in hand we'll leave this land and go wherever the trade winds blow
And we'll take this love with us when we go.
