YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME |
Richard Rodgers / Lorenz Hart |
I’m a sentimental sap, that’s all, |
what’s the use of trying not to fall? |
I have no will, you’ve made your kill |
'cause you took advantage of me. |
I’m just like an apple on a bough |
and you’re gonna shake me down somehow, |
so what’s the use, you’ve cooked my goose |
'cause you took advantage of me. |
I’m so hot and bothered that I don’t know |
my elbow from my ear. |
I suffer something awful each time you go |
and much worse when you’re near. |
Here I am with all my bridges burned, |
just a babe in arms where you’re concerned, |
so lock the doors and call me yours |
'cause you took advantage of me. |
