You Took Advantage of Me

You Took Advantage of Me - Carmen McRae Lyrics

I'm a sentimental sap that's all

What's the use of trying not to fall

I have no will, you've made your kill

Cause you took advantage of me



I'm just like an apple on a bough

And you're going shake me down somehow

But what's the use, you've cooked my goose

Cause you took advantage of me



I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know my elbow from

my ear

I suffer something awful each time you go, it's much

worse when you're near



Here am I with all my bridges burned

Just a babe in arms where you're concerned

So lock the doors and call me yours

Cause you took advantage of me



I have no will, you've made your kill

Cause you took advantage of me



Tell me, what's the use, you've cooked my goose

Cause you took advantage of me



Say, I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know my elbow

from my ear

I suffer something awful each time you go, it's much

worse when you're near



Here am I with all my bridges burned

Just a babe in arms where you're concerned

So lock the doors and call me yours

You took advantage of poor little me
