Take it to the limit
You got what it takes
Take it easy on me
I'll take you there
Take the  money and run
Every breath you take
Take me to the river
Take a chance on me
Take me home   country roads
Only takes a minute   to fall in love
Take it on the run
Take me in your arms
Back for good
Take a little rhythm
What does it take to win your love
Take me home tonight
Take good care of my baby
Take on me
Ruby don't take your love to town

Thanks for show!!!  And new QSL😄😄
