ZZ Top — Give It Up

I bet the derby and I won by a nose,
I bet Vegas and they took my clothes.
Bettin' Monte Carlo I was showin' my stuff,
I bet on you baby, now ain't that enough?

You got to give it up,
Give it up baby.
Give it up.
You got to give it up, baby, tell me where it's at.

Well there's a few more things you need to know about me,
I trained "Trigger" single-handedly.
I invented see-through negligees,
And I bought the flying saucer off the Presley estate.

You got to give it up,
You got to give it up baby.
Give it up.
You got to give it up, baby, tell me where it's at.

I fell in love down in Mexico,
Thunderbird wine's the only way to go.
I been in love ten thousand times,
All you got to do is remember my line.

Give it up.
Give it up, baby,
Give it up.
You got to give it up, baby, tell me where it's at.

Come on, give it up.
Give it up, baby.
Give it up.
You got to give it up, baby, tell me where it's at.

Краткое описание

Текст песни ZZ Top — Give It Up повествует о смелом игроке, который испытывает удачу в азартных играх и в любви. Он рассказывает о своих приключениях, выигрывая скачки, но проигрывая в Вегасе и Монте-Карло. Автор также делится своими достижениями, как тренер лошади по имени «Trigger», создатель прозрачных ночных сорочек и покупка летающей тарелки у наследия Пресли. В песне присутствует тема многократной любви и воспоминания о романтических отношениях в Мексике. Повествование наполнено духом приключений, азарта и ностальгии за прошлыми временами.
