(Give It To) The Needy

M.L. Kortes

Don't feel sorry for me

Cause I don't need you anymore

I picked up all the pieces one by one

And put 'em back like before

Looks like you've been losing sleep

Worried I can't make it alone

Put your worries in water one by one

And let 'em sink with the stones

If it's the little things that mean so much

Don't squander any of your precious touch

CHORUS:

Give it to the needy

Give it to the needy

Don't you know you freed me

When you walked out the door

Give it to the needy

Good people out on the street

Walk side by side step by step

Take a look at their faces one by one

You'll find a taker I bet

This once hungry orphan child

Sits at the table at last

Filling up on the future day by day

After a long lonely fast

And if you wanna throw a kiss my way

Why don't you save it for a rainy day and

CHORUS

It's the little things, the little things

The wedding bells, the diamond rings

The broken words, the broken wings

I'm flying away on the air

The new day brings

It's Sunday morning again

Good people saying amen

Handing in their donations one by one

To those less fortunate than them

And if you're wonderin' where I'll go from here

Take all you deep concerns and disappear

CHORUS
