Take It - Los Colognes

I only got a couple of shirts

But I make it work

They’re tried and they’re true

They’ll bend til they’re blue

Stay with me when I’ve been a jerk

I only know a couple of songs

But they’re with me all along

When everything was spinning

They came into vision

Like a hammer hit a gong

It takes a time or two

It takes going to

Then you take it

Before it takes you

I only make a few hundred dollars

From week to week

I try to save a buck

I know it ain’t much

But I’m standing on my own two feet

I only know a couple of people

In the whole wide world

That I can call a friend up until the end

It ain’t about chasing a girl

I only said «I love you» and meant it

A couple of times

Not because I don’t feel it or because it ain’t real

It’s more than just a pretty word that rhymes

I only know a couple of phrases

To live by

«Facts ain’t feelings»

«Floors ain’t ceilings»

«You can’t take nothing to the by-and-by»
