Lyrics
Too Much Takin
I left work early about a quarter to five
Grabbed a couple burgers, put some beer on ice
Another night without my baby
Is gonna drive me crazy
All day long, five days a week
BreakinÂ? my back to earn a buck
When it comes to you it's plain to see
I get more lovinÂ? from my pickup truck
CHORUS:
Too much takinÂ?, not enough givinÂ?
Who asked for this life I'm livinÂ?, not me
Time for this heart to stop achinÂ?
I'm gonna trade in this life I'm makinÂ?, You'll see
Always out runninÂ? around with your friends
ClosinÂ? the bars down every weekend
I know when I'll see you next
Friday when I get my paycheck
I know there was a time you really cared about me
But it was so long ago it didn't seem real
Now it's high past time for me to leave
Before I tell you how I really feel
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I loaded up the truck and fired her up
Headed down a dirt road, I'm gonna try and change my luck
When I got down to the end of the drive
It was seventy-five miles to a brand new life
Ain't gonna worry Â?bout....REPEAT CHORUS
