Take Care of Business
Taking Care of Business: Love, Sacrifice, and Resilience
Lyrics
When I got home from time abroad, she looked at me
Returning from time abroad, the speaker's partner observes them closely.
With eyes as if to say
The partner's eyes convey a message, urging the speaker to take care of business.
Just take care of business
An explicit directive to handle responsibilities and affairs.
Yeah just take care of business
Reiteration of the command to take care of business.
When she sees me above the house in a fourth ender
Observing the speaker from below, the partner urges action with a shout.
Oh, she yells, I hear her say
The partner vocally emphasizes the need to take care of business.
Just take care of business
A repetition of the directive to handle responsibilities.
Yeah just take care of business
Restating the importance of taking care of business.
And by the dam below the house with the yelping pups
By a dam with noisy pups, the partner instructs tying a rope, emphasizing responsibility.
Oh, she ties a rope around
The partner actively engages in securing a situation, highlighting the importance of business matters.
Just take care of business
Repeating the directive to take care of business.
Just take care of business
Emphasizing the need to handle responsibilities.
And when we kiss I feel her smile, and then she stops
A moment of intimacy is described, where the partner pauses with a request to take care of business.
Oh, she stops and looks at me
The partner stops and looks at the speaker, renewing the plea to take care of business.
Just take care of business
Reiteration of the importance of handling responsibilities.
Please take care of business
A stronger plea to please take care of business.
With a metal wreck, with a rusty tool, with snakes below
Describing a scenario with a metal wreck, a rusty tool, and snakes, the partner takes charge of the situation.
Ooh, she grabs the axe from me and takes care of business
The partner actively grabs an axe, demonstrating the action of taking care of business.
Ooh, she takes care of business
Repetition emphasizing the partner's proactive role in handling affairs.
Ooh, she takes care of business
Continued emphasis on the partner's role in taking care of business.
I ain't half the man I wanted to be
The speaker expresses a sense of inadequacy, feeling incomplete as a person.
I ain't half the man I wanted to be
Repetition of the speaker's self-perceived inadequacy.
Ooh, ya gotta take care of business
An urging statement emphasizing the importance of taking care of business.
Ooh, ya gotta take care of business
Reiteration of the importance of handling responsibilities.
I ain't half the man I wanted to be
