Lyrics Give It Away - Doug Seegers

Give It Away

If you really wanna keep it
You gotta give it away
If you really wanna help somebody
Get on your knees and pray
If you really wanna show the world
Some peace and faith
If you really wanna keep it
You gotta give it away, away
You might meet some people living out on the streets
You might meet somebody with no shoes on his feet
You might even see a drunk man lying lost in misery
That’s when it’s time to reach your hand out, boy, show some sympathy
If you really wanna keep it
You gotta give it away
If you really wanna help somebody
Get on your knees and pray
If you really wanna show the world
Some peace and faith
If you really wanna keep it
You gotta give it away, away
Sometimes I get so discouraged when there’s nothing I can do
Trying to help somebody that I love with the trouble she’s going through
I wanna be that sweet salvation, I wanna carry the news
About peace and hope, faith and love, with everything I do
If you really wanna keep it
You gotta give it away, away
