Can't Take It With You
Lyrics
Well, I sympathize completely but there's nothing I can do
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you
Well I know you have good reasons and there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting and he's leaving here with you
full lyrics...
Well, I sympathize completely but there's nothing I can do
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you
Well I know you have good reasons and there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting and he's leaving here with you

Well I know you have good reasons and there's things you've got to do
I am just obeying orders I'm a simple soul like you
Not the place you're going to
Can't take it with you
No, you can't take it with you
One more road
One last bridge
Not the place you're going to

Can't take it with you
Songwriters: Alan Parsons, Eric Woolfson
And you can't take it with you
One less load
Well you really are persuasive but I've heard it all before
Well, I sympathize completely but there's nothing I can do
No, you can't take it with you
Can't take it with you
Well, I sympathize completely but there's nothing I can do
One more mile
But the boatman won't be waiting and he's leaving here with you
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you
And the boatman's getting restless as he stands upon the shore
No matter what you do
