Don’t Get Down
Written by David Faraday
Intro
Don’t get down, don’t get down,
Don’t get down, don’t get down.
Verse 1
Try to let your heart embrace the people of the human race
And never let their mis-deeds get you down
Just assume they’re trying hard, not always right and often scarred
But looking for a way to turn it round
Turn it round, turn it round.
Hear sound from all around
Verse 2
Many of our greatest failings come about when we’re not paying
Good attention to the folks around
So, listen to the ones you find it hard to understand the problems
Influence, exert it where you can
Where you can, where you can,
Understand, where you can.
Bridge
Just let your heart embrace
We’re not a hopeless case
Never stop, we can work it out
Verse 3
Leadership, it’s sorely lacking, too much time spent on attacking
Let the fear and hate just dissipate
Try and be a good example, our earth is not a thing to gamble
Come on now let’s try and work it out
Work it out, work it out,
Take account and work it out
Verse 4
So, try to let your heart embrace the people of the human race
And never let their mis-deeds get you down
Getting quieter
It’s ok, don’t get down.
There’s a way, don’t get down
It’s here today, don’t get down.
There’s a ray, of sunshine now
Don’t get down!
