YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU
(Hal Bynum / Jim Kandy)


Ray Price - 1970
Kenny Price - 1971
Johnny Bush - 1973





You can take the lips that once kissed me
And the good times that we will never know
But I'll keep the love I feel for you forever
And you can't take it with you when you go

The time you spend with me brought you sadness
As I watched your need to leave begin to grow
So I took your ev'ry look and made myself a mem'ry
And you can't take it with you when you go

When you leave, my life won't be empty, oh no
'Cause your leaving more than you know
I'll have the song you taught my lonely heart to sing
And you can't take it with you when you go
No, you can't take it with you when you go
