Give It Away

If you want more happy than your heart will hold, If you want to stand taller, if the truth were told, take whatever you have and give it away. If you want less lonely and lot more fun and deep satisfaction when the day is done, throw your heart wide open and give it away Now, he was working in his garden when i happened by. He waved me over with that look in his eye and started breaking off some ears of corn. He said, "Here, boy, today this corn is just right. "Boil it up for your supper tonight "I've learned it's true what my pappy used to say. Nothing's quite as good until you give it away." Chorus: If you want more happy than your heart will hold, If you want to stand taller, if the truth were told, take whatever you have and give it away. If you want less lonely and lot more fun and deep satisfaction when the day is done, throw your heart wide open and give it away [piano solo] There's been a lot of water gone over the dam since that day in the garden with my Uncle Sam. so I hope You'll hear these words I have to say. There are two kind of folks, There's takers and givers. There's gripers and complainers and bighearted livers. It depends on how we choose to spend our days. 'Cause we can hoard up all we´ve got or give it all away [chorus 2x] give it away (gonna give it, give it away!) give it away give it away (gonna give it away yeah) give it away [chorus 2x]
