give me a break - the ritchie family lyrics

Give Me A Break

I’m travelin’ through this game called life
It’s a tough game to play sometimes the game gets rough
Now, that I’ve got the final okay
You’re tryin’ so hard to take it all away
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break

Well I started out my life, tryin’ to find a better way
To live in this world from day to day
Now, people don’t you know, don’t you know
Folks always said, you’ve got to reap just what you sew
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break, give it up
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break, give it up

Won’t you give me a break, I deserve a better shake
Won’t you, give me, give me a break, come on give me a break
I’m a woman I deserve a better shake, what you don’t give, I will take

Oh, I tried to find out, what this was all about
Everyone wanted to go their own way
You say I’ve got the right, no one can stop me, now
I’m tryin’ so hard and now I’ve learned how
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break

Now I’ve got what I deserve, I have settled with my goal
Ain’t nothin’ I need, deep down in my soul
I got a future, I got a degree
I got everything, but a j-o-b
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break, give it up
I’ve got my education, I’ve got determination
I’ve got imagination, come on give me a break, give it up
