Don't Let it Get to YOU.

When things aren't going the way you planned.
When your having trouble taking that stand.
When your blessings have all run out.
You can never be sure there's always that doubt.
When you need money, but the well has been tapped.
You can't see the light, when you feel trapped.

So, Stop singing those Blues.
And, Don't Let it Get to YOU.
Don't Let it Get to YOU.

No Matter what you do.
Don't Let it Get to YOU.
Don't Let it Get to YOU.

People out on the streets, where we live.
Don't have anything, that they can give.
Why can't we build the houses, around the trees.
We got to stand like the sixties, and just say PEACE!
People are you listening, listening to me...
Someday we'll all, we'll all be FREE.

So, Stop singing those Blues.
And, Don't Let it Get to YOU.
Don't Let it Get to YOU.

No Matter what you do.
Don't Let it Get to YOU.
Don't Let it Get to YOU!

Thanks Ladies! I actually have turned this
one into a song and enjoy playing my acoustic
guitar and singing it, especially with my
8 year old daughter. She loves singing the chorus.

dancing Happy Holidays!!!
