“Give” & “Go” Songs, Vol. 1

What do you do when you've recently completed a series of songs with "Give" and "Take" in the title, but you still have a lot of good "Give" songs to spare?  You create a new two-part series with an obscure (outside the world of basketball, at least) sports phrase pairing the word "Give" with the word "Go" and you just roll with it. Enjoy!  ~  JH
