Well, I've been drawing little hearts in the morning paper
Lookin' for a house an' a couple of acres
You'll be mine some time, sooner or later and I can't wait.

Like a busy ol' bee savin' up it's honey
Honey I'm savin' up all my money
To have you I'll do anything I have to,
Whatever it takes.

Whatever it takes to win your love
I'll hire me an airplane,
Have it paint your name up in the sky above
I'll tell the world I'm yours,
Put it on a billboard out on the interstate
If it takes forever to get us together
Honey, I'll do whatever it takes.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I've been yellin' your name from a lookout mountain
Tossing my pennies in a downtown fountain
Makin' my wishes I'm hopin' they're countin' for loves sake
I'll swim upstream in a ragin' river
Walk through fire til you get the picture
I swear I'll bare anything to get there
Whatever it takes.

Whatever it takes to win your love first
I'll hire me an airplane,
Have it paint your name up in the sky above
I'll tell the world I'm yours,
Put it on a billboard out on the interstate
If it takes forever to get us together
Honey, I'll do whatever it takes.

--- Instrumental ---

Whatever it takes to win your love
I'll hire me an airplane,
Have it paint your name up in the sky above
Yeah, I'll tell the world I'm yours,
Put it on a billboard out on the interstate
If it takes forever to get us together
Honey, I'll do whatever it takes.

Well, if it takes forever to get us together
Honey, I'll do whatever it takes...

Saw a man in the movies that didn't have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldn't have to feel it breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside would suit me fine.

It's times like these I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted and I'd never even know
I'd give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't need a soul.

I couldn't see your leavin' comin'
You took me by surprise
Even now it still seems like a dream
But I know I can't be dreamin'
'Cause as I lay down each night
The pain so great that it won't let me sleep.

It's times like these I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted and I'd never even know
I'd give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't need a soul.

Well, I'd give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't miss you so...

Last night, I think, I put that home fire out,
Came in late to a cold dark house.
I guess she thinks she got me good this time.
She took all of hers, and most of mine.

She left me high, but I aint dry,
Well, I've got beer and tears to cry.
Well I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
That woman left me high, but I aint dry.

Say bar tender fill `er up again.
Let's us keep me in the shape I'm in.
And if I can't get her memory to drown,
Well, I'll take it for a swim all over town.

She left me high, but I aint dry,
Well, I've got beer and tears to cry.
Well I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
That woman left me high, but I aint dry.

Hell, I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
Yeah, that woman left me high, but I aint dry.
