Hothouse Flowers Give It Up Lyrics

Give It Up Lyrics

I'm coming face to face with my conscience

 Coming to an understanding of myself

 Clear out all the old cobwebs

 Clear the old books from the shelf

 

 This song is inspired by a good man

 And his tune

 Thinking good of others

 Sing Amazing Grace to you

 It doesn't really matter if you're all

 Jumbled up inside

 As long as you know love is

 Endless and the world is wide

 Give it up share it out

 Help who you can

 Talk about it

 

 It's late in the morning, close to the time

 Mary's in the alley she never stops smiling

 Always love to see her -- means a lot to me

 But I know she has a hard time trying to

 Make ends meet

 

 Chorus: Give it up...

 

 Down George Street arcade where the poor children play

 Gathering up charity just to help them make their day

 Me I was once their age, me I was once young

 But I knew I had my family to fall back on

 

 Give it up...
