Kris Kristofferson - The Taker lyrics

He's a giver, he'll give her
The kind of attention that she's never known
He's a teacher, he'll teacher her
To open the doors that she can't on her own
He's a lover, he'll love her
In ways that she never has been loved before
And he's a getter, he'll get her
By gettin' her into the world
She's been hungryin' for
He's a charmer, and he'll charm her
With money and manners that I never learned
He's a leader, and he'll lead her
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn
He's a talker, he'll talk her
Right off of her feet
But he won't talk for long
Cause he's a doer, and he'll do her
The way that I've never
And damned if he won't do her wrong

Cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher
Than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him
He'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes

Cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher
Than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him
He'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes
