Music & Lyrics: Carolyn Wonderland
(C)
It should take some time to get used to
It should take a little less of a toll
It should take you by the hand and lead you
You should have some jelly with your roll
It should take all it can and leave you nothing
It should take the words right out of your mouth
It should take just a minute, can you hold it?
Smile and watch your mouth
when you go down south, go down …south
(D)
It should take its time to get to know you
It should take an act of congress to pass
It should take your breath and leave you wanting
You should take your time
& make it last
It should take a country road that leads nowhere
It should take a bird in hand & two in bush
It should take just another quart of oil
Stop and plant some roses honey
What’s your rush, what’s your …rush?
(E)
It should take about half of your lifetime
It should take a second try, maybe a third
It should take another shot or two of courage
It takes more than wings to fly like a bird
It should take two at three in the morning
It should take a stand for what is right
It should take five trains to keep me laughing
You should go on…
And take me tonight
