lyrics

Take my privileges, you can take my dope
Take my walkman, you can take my clothes
Take my timber, you can burn my coal
Can have what you want but you won't take my soul
No, you won't, you won't take my soul
You can have what you want
You won't take my soul

Take my confidence, you can take my pills
Swallow them down, you can get your thrills
Take my trade, you can take my craft
You can have this guitar for part of your raft
But you won't, you won't take my soul
You can have what you want
You won't take my soul

Take my freedom, you can take my car
Can drive across the land near or far
You can take my kingdom, you can take my crown
You can have my shoes, you can run me down
But you won't, you won't take my soul
You can have what you want
You won't take my soul

Take my livelihood and bury it in the ground
Dig my treasure and run me outta this town
Can bank my money, can mine that gold
You can have my house I'll stay out in the cold
Take those cigarettes go smoke them all
Can drink that wine, you can suffer the fall
You can have my horse, you can have her foal
But don't you forget, you won't take my soul

You can have what you want
But you won't take my soul
