Don't You Take It Too Bad Lyrics - Townes Van Zandt - Townes Van Zandt

Well, don't you take it too bad 

If you're feelin' unlovin' 

If you're feelin' unfeelin' 

If you're feelin' alone 

Don't take it too bad 

'Cause it ain't you to blame, babe 

Lord, it's some kind of game, babe 

Out of all of this living 

That we've got left to do 

And if you go searching 

For rhyme or for reason 

Then you won't have the time 

That it takes just for talkin' 

About the places you've been, babe 

About the faces you've seen, babe 

And how soft the time flies 

Past your window at night 

And we just can't have that, girl 

'Cause it's a sad, lonesome, cold world 

And a man needs a woman 

Just to stand by his side 

And whisper sweet words in his ears about daydreams 

And roses and playthings 

And the sweetness of springtime 

And the sound of the rain
