|
In every other song that I've heard lately
|
Some fellow gets shot
|
And his baby and his best friend both die with him
|
As likely as not
|
In half of the other songs
|
Some Cat's crying or ready to die
|
We've lost most of our happy people
|
And I'm wondering why.
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Let's think about living
|
Let's think about loving
|
Let's think about the whoopin' and hoppin and boppin' and the lovie, lovie
|
dovin'
|
Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin'
|
And the shooting and the dying
|
And the fellow with a switchblade knife
|
Let's think about living
|
Let's think about life.
|
|
We lost old Marty Robbins
|
Down in old El Paso a little while back
|
And now Miss Patti Page or one of them
|
Is a-wearing black
|
And Cath's Clown has Don and Phil
|
Where they feel like a-they could die
|
If we keep on a-losin' our singers like that
|
I'll be the only one you can buy'.
|
|
(CHORUS)
