Fred Foster - The Giving And The Taking lyrics

[Verse 1] I keep on a' giving And I took all the taking I gave all my love to you And I took all your hurt I treated you so good [Verse 2] But you treated me like dirt They say love is give and take Now my poor heart is breaking I keep on a' giving And I took all the taking I always gave you everything [Verse 3] That I knew how to give I would for you I treated you too good for my own good Now I'm along and left forsaken I keep on a' giving And took all the taking [Chorus] The giving and the taking Has caused my heart to break I've given all that I can give And I have taken all that I can take [Chorus]
