BLUES SONG OF THE DAY (Female): Janis Joplin: Piece Of My Heart (Ragovoy / Berns) (From "Cheap Thrills", 1968, Columbia)

===========
Oh, come on, come on
Come on, come on!

Didn't I make you feel
Like you were the only man
Yeah, didn't I give you nearly everything
That a woman possibly can?
Honey, you know I did!

And each time I tell myself that I
Well I think I've had enough
But I'm gonna show you, baby
That a woman can be tough

I want you to come on, come on
Come on, come on

And take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
(Oh, oh, break it!)
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah
(Oh, oh, have a!)
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
But you know you got it
If it makes you feel good
Oh, yes indeed

You're out on the streets looking good
And baby deep down in your heart
I guess you know that it ain't right
Never, never, never, never, never
Never hear me when I cry at night
Babe, and I cry all the time!

But each time I tell myself that I
Well I can't stand the pain
But when you hold me in your arms
I'll sing it once again

I'll say come on, come on
Come on, come on

And take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
(Oh, oh, break it!)
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah
(Oh, oh, have a!)
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
Well you know you got it, child
If it makes you feel good

I need you to come on, come on
Come on, come on

And take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
(Oh, oh, break it!)
Break another little bit of my heart
Now darling, yeah, c'mon now
(Oh, oh, have a!)
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it
Woah!

Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
(Oh, oh, break it!)
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah
(Oh, oh, have a!)
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey
You know you got it, child
If it makes you feel good
