You can take the house and everything in it
|
Keep the diamond ring cause thats how I meant it
|
Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me
|
This material life with all it's value
|
Don't mean a thing to me without you
|
The love that we once had is all I need
|
So take everything we have if it makes you happy
|
But darlin let me say before I leave
|
|
[Chorus]
|
These sticks and stones ain't all that makes a home
|
They don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong
|
Now you say, we are through
|
These sticks and stones may break me,
|
But the words you said just tore my heart in two
|
|
Remember when we didn't have a dime between us
|
You took my hand and said we don't needmuch
|
Just as long as we're together we would be fine
|
Now we've acquired all I thought would please you
|
I gave everything you know that I could
|
And still you're telling me you're not satisfied
|
So take everything we have if it makes you happy
|
But darlin let me say before I leave
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
These sticks and stones may break me,
|
But the words you said just tore my heart in two
|
