Don't Let The Joneses Get You Down [Single-Version]
作詞:Barrett Strong, Norman Whitfield
Ow, people gather round me It's whom it may concern I'm not trying to run your life But you're never too old to learn
Stop worrying about your neighbors And the fancy things they got 'Cause if you do you'll find it sure You're gonna wind up on the spot
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down One more time
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down
You may not believe it But nine times out of ten it's true The people you're trying to keep up with Are trying to keep up too
Remember that old saying 'All that glitters ain't gold' Take heed, don't ignore it Until your money time will hold, oh
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down Hear me now, now
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down
You're lying to yourself But you don't even know it You're so busy following the Joneses You ain't got time to show it
Keeping up with the Joneses It'll only makes your life a mess Bill collectors, tranquilizers And getting deeper in debt
You better leave The Joneses alone 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Tell 'em one more time You better leave, oh leave The Joneses alone
Joneses got a new car today Here's what you should say Hurray for the Joneses Instead you worry till your whole head turns gray Worry 'bout the Joneses
Remember it's their car and they're the ones who had to pay So leave Jo-jo-joneses alone Listen, your car might be old But remember it never fails to get you where you want to go
Oh, don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down Hear me now, now
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down
You're doing fine Don't let the Joneses get you down
Now listen, if you see something you want And you know you can't afford it The very next thing for you to do is Start saving towards it
The Joneses have been a downfall For many persons, you see So people, take my advice And let the Joneses be
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down Hear me now, now
Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down
You're doing fine Don't let the Joneses get you down You're doing fine Don't let the Joneses get you down
