TAKE WHAT YOU NEED As recorded by Steppenwolf (From the 1968 Album STEPPENWOLF) [Intro] [Verse 1] Take my hand sweet darlin’ wipe that frown off your face I don’t love anyone but you no one can take your place but Sometimes I worry darlin’ the way you seem to hoard my love [Chorus] Just take what you need don’t empty out the store Just take what you need ’cause I ain’t got much more [Verse 2] Took a stroll in the country some peace of mind to find Wire fences everywhere no place to rest my mind Seems like a shame to me the way some people hoard their land [Chorus] Just take what you need don’t empty out the store Just take what you need ’cause I ain’t got much [Interlude] [Verse 3] Took a look in the paper while tryin’ to eat a bite You know I read the evening news and lost my appetite Some have the nerve to ask for more respect from you and me [Chorus] Just take what you need don’t empty out the store Just take what you need ’cause I ain’t got much [Interlude] N.. [Verse 4] Take my hand sweet darlin’ wipe that frown off your face I don’t love anyone but you no one can take your place but Sometimes I worry darlin’ the way you seem to hoard my love [Chorus] Just take what you need don’t empty out the store Just take what you need ’cause I ain’t got much [Outro]
