Lyrics

Take Me Alive

Hold me just a little bit tighter
Squeeze me just a little bit tighter
Hold me just a little bit tighter
Tighter, tighter, like that

Love me just a little bit longer
Stay here just a little bit longer
Lay here just a little bit longer
Longer, longer
Give a little time
Give a little love
I'll give it all right back
You're pretty enough
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive

So, raise me just a little bit higher
Take me just a little bit higher
You make me just a little bit higher
Higher, higher
Give a little time
Give a little love
I'll give it all right back
You're pretty enough
C'mon
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive

So, hold me just a little bit tighter
Squeeze me just a little bit tighter
Hold me just a little bit tighter
A little tighter, tighter
Give a little time
Give a little love
I'll give it all right back
You're pretty enough
C'mon
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
