Biografia:
Billy Joe Royal (April 3, 1942 – October 6, 2015) was an American pop and country singer.
Born in Valdosta, Georgia, and raised in Marietta, Georgia, Royal became a local star at the Bamboo Ranch in Savannah in the 1950s and 1960s. He is best known for the 1965 US Top 10 pop hit "Down in the Boondocks", which, along with the singles "I Knew You When" (Top 20, 1965) and "Hush" (1967), were written and produced by Joe South. Another South composition, "Yo-Yo," just missed the top 40 in Canada and charted poorly in the U.

When you take you got to give, so, live and let

live, or let go..now..now..now

I beg your pardon..I never promised you a rose garden.

I could promise you things like big diamond rings,

If sweet talking you could make it come true
Bm
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter..
E7
but what would it matter?

A
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon..

You better look before you leap, still waters run deep,

and there won't always be someone there to pull you out..
E7
and you know what I'm talking about.
