Well I sympathize completely, but there's nothing I can do.
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you.
Well I know you have good reasons, and there's things you've got to do,
But the boatman won't be waiting, and he's leaving here with you;

And you can't take it with you
No matter what you do.
No you can't take it with you
Not the place you're going to...

Well I sympathize completely, but there's nothing I can do.
I am just a obeying orders, I'm a simple soul like you.
Well you really are persuasive, but I've heard it all before,
And the boatman's getting restless as he stands upon the shore;

And you can't take it with you
No matter what you do.
No you can't take it with you
Not the place you're going to...

Can't take it with you...
Can't take it with you...
