brenda lee - takin' what i can get lyrics

takin’ what i can get lyrics
[verse 1: brenda lee]
it’s a crime the way you treat me
night time’s the only time you meet me
and hotel rooms with shades pulled down
morning comes and you’re never around
and it’s a sin the way i love you
but my friend, i can’t rise above you
lord knows it’s k!lling me
but that’s the way it’s gotta be

[chorus: brenda lee, brenda lee & chorus]
and i keep taking what i can get, regretting the day we met
letting you do your thing, in love’s name
i keep holding on to you, there’s nothing left for me to do
guess i should find somebody new, and break these chains
but i’m caught in the wheels, of love’s cheating game

[verse 2: brenda lee]
your daughter’s only three, too young to know about you and me
ah her mama needs you, too, just the way i need you
and love, i should not complain
for i’m just as much to blame
i’ve known all along, what we’ve been doing’s wrong

[chorus: brenda lee, brenda lee & chorus]
and i keep taking what i can get, regretting the day we met
letting you do your thing, in love’s name
and i keep holding on to you, there’s nothing left for me to do
guess i should find somebody new, and break these chains
but i’m caught in the wheels, of love’s cheating game
[bridge: brenda lee]
as the wheels of love keep turning
higher the fire is burning
i’m bitter, lord, but your love’s so sweet
i know we’re heading down a dead+end street

[chorus: brenda lee, brenda lee & chorus]
and i keep taking what i can get, regretting the day we met
just letting you do your thing, in love’s name
lord, i keep holding on to you, there’s nothing left for me to do
guess i should find somebody new, and break these chains
but i’m caught in the wheels, of love’s cheating game
