about

This peppy light hearted swing tune features duo vocals (Zoey and Tony), solos on bass (TQ) and organ (Jeff McLeod) and a lot of good advice.

lyrics

GIVE AND TAKE
You know love is not a piece of cake
You gotta work real hard to keep away from heartache
Stay alert stay awake
Step on the gas then hit the break
Listen Jake you gotta learn to give and take

And you better be sweet to your little cupcake
Doncha start behaving like a total flake now
Watch out it would be a mistake
To cheat or run around or go on the make
Give your head a shake
You gotta learn to give and take

Well be a man do the best you can and try not to be a jerk
You gotta do whatcha do from the point of view of trying to make things work
Don’t be a fool stubborn like a mule set on getting your own way
A little tit for tat a bit of this for that and everything’ll be okay

Be a man do the best you can and try not to be a jerk
You gotta do whatcha do from the point of view of trying to make things work
Hey don’t be a fool stubborn like a mule set on getting your own way
A little tit for tat a bit of this for that and everything’ll be okay

Love can make you shiver and quake
It can be like winning a big sweepstake
But you gotta keep it real it’s something you can’t fake
It’s hard work and there ain’t no coffee break
Don’t moan and groan and bellyache
You gotta learn to give and take

It’s a fact Jack
That’s right Dwight
It’s true Sue
And it’s tricky Dicky
That’s the case Ace
You gotta learn to give and take
It’s your duty MacVooty
It’s no lie Sly
It’s what you do Stu
It’s how it goes Mose
In the end friend
You gotta learn to give and take
