| I gave you love when you were lonely
|
| And I gave you strength when your times were bad
|
| I’ve been a daddy to your children
|
| And I’ve dried your tears when you were sad.
|
| But darlin', you don’t need to thank me Having you is thanks enough
|
| And if there’s anything you owe me Darling, I’ll just take it out in love.

|
| I’ve been your friend when you were troubled
|
| And I stood by you when things went wrong
|
| I picked you up each time you stumbled
|
| When you were weak and I was strong.
|
| But darlin', you don’t need to thank me Having you is thanks enough
|
| And if there’s anything you owe me
|
| I’ll just take it out in love.
|
| Darling, I’ll just take it out in love… |
