Won’t you give me something Something to hold on to This whole world has taken Taken me for a ride You come smiling through the doorway looking like an old regret Still a whole lot better than you did last time we met Between a real hard spot and a hole in a concrete wall Running out of highway looking for a place to fall Won’t you give me something Something to hold on to This whole world has taken Taken me for a ride Pick me up and learn me Turn me down and burn me Darling won’t you give me Give me one last try Well to tell you true I never thought we’d be here again Gonna feel alright now darling for the shape I’m in Nearly fell to pieces just thinking it would all fall through Feeling like somebody when you finally came into view Darling won’t you give me something Something to hold on to This whole world has taken Taken me for a ride Pick me up and learn me Turn me down and burn me Darling won’t you give me Give me one last try Now I won’t say it all worked out like I planned Lucky I still got a leg on which to stand I had a half of mind to get gone Leave it a little try to move on But I just sat there staring at the secondhand On the barroom wall now Darling won’t you give me something Something to hold on to This whole world has taken Taken me for a ride Pick me up and learn me Turn me down and burn me Darling won’t you give me Give me one last try Try
