ized how much she brought to the table
Till I went to sit my cup of cof
fee where the table use to be
no heirloom antique cradle
Bet she's gainin' fast on Memphis
with a trailer-load in in tow
Who says you can't take it with
Cause she got away with everything
I could make it all alright
An' I got away with leavin'
Hell, I even blew the chance I
an' took off down that road
An' they say you can't take it
ain't much here left for packin'
she left behind a million memories
All the echoes of her cryin',
Left me with nothin' left to do but leave
That ol' house is in the rear view:
ridin' shotgun is her ghost
Who says you can't take it with
Cause she got away with everything
could make it all alright
An' I got away with leavin'
Hell, I even blew the chance I
Yeah, she took her heart an' took
An' they say you can't take it with you
