YOU CAN TAKE
THE HOUSE
AND EVERYTHING IN IT
KEEP THE DIAMOND RING
'CAUSE THAT'S
HOW I MEANT IT
STICKS AND STONES
ARE ALL THEY EVER
WERE TO ME
THIS MATERIAL LIFE
WITH ALL ITS 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 YA HAPPY
BUT DARLIN' LET ME SAY
BEFORE I LEAVE
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 NEED MUCH
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 TELLIN' ME
YOU'RE NOT SATISFIED
SO TAKE EVERYTHING
WE HAVE
IF IT MAKES YA HAPPY
BUT DARLIN' LET ME SAY
BEFORE I LEAVE
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
THESE STICKS
AND STONES
MAY BREAK ME
BUT THE WORDS YOU SAID
JUST TORE MY HEART
IN TWO
