Can't Take It With You Lyrics - Singles - Church Eric

Never realized how much she brought to the table 

Till I went to sit my cup of coffee where the table use to be 

No cats, no bed, no heirloom antique cradle 

An' no more hope for one day startin' that family 

Bet she's gainin' fast on Memphis with a trailer-load in tow 

Who says you can't take it with you when you go 

Chorus: 

Cause she got away with everything that I had goin' 

An' she got away 'fore I could make it all alright 

An' I got away with leavin' what needs said unspoken 

Hell, I even blew the chance I had to say goodbye 

Yeah, she took her heart an' took off down that road 

An' they say you can't take it with you when you go 

Good news is: ain't much here left for packin' 

Bad news is: she left behind a million memories 

All the echoes of her cryin', lovin' an' laughin' 

Left me with nothin' left to do but leave 

That ol' house is in the rear view: ridin' shotgun is her ghost 

Who says you can't take it with you when you go 

(Repeat Chorus) 

(Instrument Break) 

Closin' in on Dallas, now, is the best love I've ever known 

An' they say you can't take it with you when you go
