Can You Take It Lyrics

John Mellencamp

I was courting 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, "Daddy's 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 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've 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
Even a fool like me can be the loving kind Even a fool like me can be the loving, loving 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
