Janis Joplin ⋅ Piece of my Heart [Cheap Thrills, 1968]

Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!

Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man -yeah!

Didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can ?

Honey, you know I did!

And each time I tell myself that I, well I think I've had enough

But I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it

Take it!

Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!

Oh, oh, break it!

Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah,yeah

Oh, oh, have a!

Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

You know you got it if it makes you feel good

Oh, yes indeed

You're out on the streets looking good

And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain't right

Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night

Babe, I cry all the time!

And each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain

But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again

I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!

Take it!

Take another little piece of my heart now, baby

Oh, oh, break it!

Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah

Oh, oh, have a!

Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good

I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it

Take it!

Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!

oh, oh, break it!

Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c'monnow

oh, oh, have a

Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

You know you got it!

Take it!

Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby

Oh, oh, break it!

Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah

Oh, oh, have a

Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey

You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good
