Lets Think About Living

Lets Think About Living - Bob Luman

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

Let's think about living

Let's think about loving

Let's think about the whooping

And hoppin and bopping

And the lovie lovie doving

Let's forget about the whining and the crying

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-losing our singers like that

I'll be the only one you can buy

Let's think about living

Let's think about loving

Let's think about the whooping

And hoppin and bopping

And the lovie lovie doving

Let's forget about the whining and the crying

And the shooting and the dying

And the fellow with a switchblade knife

Let's think about living

Let's think about life

Let's think about living

Let's think about loving

Let's think about the whooping

And hoppin and bopping

And the lovie lovie doving

Let's forget about the whining and the crying

And the shooting and the dying

And the fellow with a switchblade knife

Let's think about living

Let's think about life

Let's think about living

Let's think about life

Let's think about living

Let's think about life
