I knew man who drank himself to death I heard him say with his dying breath
I can take it or leave it I really don't need it
Yeah I can take it or leave it take it or leave it alone
I've got income tax that if I don't pay
They say they're gonna give me a new place to stay
Well I can take it or leave it well I'd rather not need it
I really don't need it I've already got a good home

Smoking's a habit that's hard to break but I can quit twenty times a day
Cause I can take it or leave it I really don't need it
Yes I can take it or leave it take it or leave it alone
My sweet lover left me livin' all alone ain't had no lovin' since she's been gone
Yeah I can take it or leave it but I'd rather not I need it
Yeah I really not need it I really not leave it alone
