Songtexte: Mr. Big. Bump Ahead. The Price You Gotta Pay.

I could take what I want
But I take what I need
How can I help myself
If I need everything

I got possession
With half of the truth
Then change direction
When the bill comes due
Then I turn around
The man is standin' at the door
The price you gotta pay
It's comin' down today
At the time it seemed so easy
Like any game you play
There's a price for saying maybe
It's the price you gotta pay
I got here with nothin'
I'll leave with a lot
Come on and take a chance baby
Give me what you got
A piece of the action
A slice of the pie
I hope you won't remember
When it's time to testify
I turn around to look at you
Your lookin' back my way
Price you gotta pay
It's comin' down today
At the time it seems so easy
Like any game you play
There's a price for saying maybe
The price you gotta pay

Solo

Now this is how it all adds up
The rent is due and so are you
I here to repossess your soul
Hey baby, you're deep into the hole
It's the price you gotta pay
It's comin' down today
It started out so easy
Like a little game
There's a price for saying maybe
A price you gotta pay
Price you gotta pay
At the time it seemed so easy
Like any game you play
There's a price for saving maybe
The price you gotta pay
