YOU CAN'T TAKE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE



YOU CAN’T TAKE WHAT YOU DON’T HAVE
(YOU DON’T HAVE ME)
WhiteHeart
Shaun, would you bring my slippers?
My dancin’ slippers.

Strip it clean
Chain my hands
And take my land
Cut my hair
Try to shut my mouth
I’ll still speak out
Tie me up
Close my eyes
You can hypnotize
You can tear me apart
But you’ll never touch my heart
‘Cause you can’t take what you don’t have

Hear the whispered warnings
Down the corridor of time
Crack the whip
Pull the chains
But the story will unwind
See the drawn out faces
Live the history
Look into the children’s eyes
This is what you’ll reap

Strip it clean
Chain my hands
And take my land
Cut my hair
Try to shut my mouth
I’ll still speak out
Tie me up
And close my eyes
You can hypnotize
You can tear me apart
But you’ll never touch my heart
‘Cause you can’t take what you don’t have
Oh you can’t take what you don’t have
Oh Oh
You can’t take what you don’t have
Oh
You don’t have me
No no
No no

Here comes the government
Knockin’ at my door
They’ve tried to take it all
Now they’re back for more
I know what they’re after
But there’s nothin’ they can do
‘Cause the heart and the soul of the ages
Is somethin’ I won’t lose

Strip it clean
Chain my hands
And take my land
Cut my hair
Try to shut my mouth
I’ll still speak out
Tie me up
Close my eyes
You can even hypnotize
You can tear me apart
But you’ll never touch my heart
‘Cause you can’t take what you don’t have
Oh you can’t take what you don’t have
Oh no
You can’t take what you don’t have
Oh
You can’t take what you don’t have
You don’t have me

Strip it clean
Chain my hands

Cut my hair
Try to shut my mouth

Tie me up
Close my eyes

You can tear me apart
But you’ll never touch my heart
You can’t take what you don’t have
Oh no
You can’t take what you don’t have
Oh you don’t have me
You can’t take what you don’t have
Oh no no no
You can’t take what you don’t have
No
You can’t take what you don’t have
No you don’t have
No you don’t have

You can’t take what you don’t have
