Don't expect a miracle to happen while you sleep It's too bad now, if you're sad now, You have to get up on your feet You've got to give what you take And baby take what you get I'm gonna give what I take And baby take what I get Don't sit around pining for love that you can't have You have to get up and with a little good luck Now it won't seem half as bad You've got to give what you take And baby take what you get I'm gonna give what I take And baby take what I get Don't you take offence now to the things that I just said You'll start to smile if you think for a while You can work it all out in your head You've got to give what you take And baby take what you get I'm gonna give what I take And baby take what I get
