| Possession of your possessions, I do believe is nine tenths of the law
|
| You better hold on tight to what you’ve got
|
| Before that woman ain’t your woman no more
|
| Turn your back just for a second, somebody trying to steal her away
|
| Ready or not they want what you got
|
| And nothing’s gonna stand in their way
|
| You could take all of my money, the keys to my car right outta my hand
|
| Because it makes no matter without that stuff, I’d still be a richer man
|
| But for what you can’t pacify me, the only one thing that I need
|
| You’re trying your luck, you ain’t giving up
|
| Can’t you see that what’s taken is what you’re trying to take from me
|
| Possession has got a hold of me
|
| Can’t you see that what’s taken is what you’re trying to take from me
|
| Possession has got a hold on me
|
| So we shoot a little pool in the back room
|
| I still got her taste on the tip of my tongue
|
| I see a man, he’s walking on over
|
| I know what is happening before it’s begun
|
| He wastes no time to get started
|
| It’s happening right in front of me
|
| Oh he shakes my hand, don’t he understand that tonight
|
| You know she’s coming home with me
|
| Possession has got a hold on me, oh yeah
|
| Oh can’t you see that what’s taken is what you’re trying to take from me
|
| Oh can’t you see that what’s taken is what you’re trying to take from me
|
| Oh possession has got a hold on me |
