I gave two teeth in a teenage brawl
For a girl whose name I can't re-call Then we broke up
I gave them, me, to the football team
Chasing that high school state champ dream We almost won
I gave junior college almost a year
Then I gave a grey hound twenty bucks And that's how I got here
I give all my money for a slice of daily bread
I give forty honest hours to a boss I never met
And I gave my soul to Jesus at the age of twenty two
So there ain't much left to offer but I give my heart to you
I gave up a beard and a head of hair
To a boot camp corporal with a barber's chair At camp LaJune
I gave Uncle Sam what he bargained for
Twenty-four months not a minute more I just didn't fit in
Then I gave a high school friend of mine a call
And we gave a body shop a try till we gave up last fall
So there ain't much left to offer but I give my heart to you
