Can You Take It
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 tryna make a fool out of me
She said, "I've seen men like you before
I got a long family tree"
And she say 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 must 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, yeah, all the way down, down, down?
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 tryna make a fool out of me
She said, "I've seen men like you before
I got a long family tree"
And she say 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 must 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, yeah, all the way down, down, down?
