( Body blues song lyrics )
YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY
Copyright © 1996 - MickTerry.com

6/8   (blues)
She had me wrapped & tied & sewn up with no sense of pride.
She had me so completely at her will.
She'd have me fetch and crawl, and for her love, I'd do it all.
Whatever she would order, I'd fulfill.
But then she left me, or rather, she let me know she
could not be bothered with me anymore.

    YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY, use it as you please.
    Have it for your pleasure; abuse it for your needs.
    YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY, do just what you choose.
    I've got nobody to lose.

You've always tried to be the one to put the make on me,
but never quite succeeded at you game.
You never did me wrong, but then, you never turned me on.
I'd rather do without you, just the same.
But then she left me, and now I could care what happens.
It doesn't make much difference anymore.

    CHORUS

You can be kind or cruel or play me for the biggest fool,
'cause that is quite exactly what I am.
There's nothing left for me: no hope, no worth, just pure defeat.
It seems I've placed my future in your hands.
'Cause when she left me, she took all my sense of being.
She'd stripped me of my feelings long before.

    YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY, use it as you please.
    Have it for your pleasure; abuse it for your needs.
    YOU CAN TAKE MY BODY, do just what you choose.
    I've got nobody, I've got nobody, I've got nobody to lose.
