Three four 
Ooh 
Take a piece of my heart 
Take a piece of my soul 
Let me live 
Oh yeah 

Why don't you take another little piece of my heart 
Why don't you take it and break it 
And tear it all apart 
All I do is give 
And all you do is take 
Baby why don't you give me 
A brand new start 

So let me live (So let me live) 
Let me live (Leave me alone) 
Let me live, oh baby 
And make a brand new start 

Why don't you take another little piece of my soul 
Why don't you shape it and shake it 
'Til you're really in control 
All you do is take 
And all I do is give 
All that I'm askin' 
Is a chance to live 

(So let me live) - So let me live 
(Leave me alone) - Let me live, let me live 
Why don't you let me make a brand new start 

Yeah, and it's a long hard struggle, yeah yeah 
But you can always depend on me 
And if you're ever in trouble - hey 
You know where I will be 

Why don't you take another little piece of my life 
Why don't you twist it and turn it 
And cut it like a knife 
All you do is live 
All I do is die 
Why can't we just be friends 
Stop livin' a lie 

So let me live (So let me live) 
Let me live (Leave me alone) 
Please let me live 
(Why don't you live a little) 
Oh yeah baby 
(Why don't you give a little love...?) 
Go for it baby 

Let me live 
Please let me live 
Oh yeah baby, let me live 
And make a brand new start 
Let me live (Let me live) 
Ooh yeah (Let me live) 
Come on (Let me live ooh) 

In your heart, oh baby 
(Take another piece, take another piece) 
(Take another piece, take another piece) 
Ooh please let me live 
(Take another piece, take another piece) 
(Take another piece, take another piece) 
Why don't you take another piece 
Take another little piece of my heart 
Oh yeah baby 
Make a brand new start 
Baby baby 
Baby baby 
Baby baby 
Baby baby 
All you do is take, take 
Let me live 
(Let me live) 
Oh yeah let 
Let me live
