Control Yourself

Control Yourself - Doris Day/André Previn

Lyrics by：Andre Previn

Composed by：Dory Previn

Control yourself contain yourself

Restrict yourself restrain yourself

And always let tranquility be your goal

Control yourself contain yourself

And if you can't explain yourself

And try to act agreeably on the whole

Life is far too short to spend it in a huff

Try to be the sort of guy who laughs

When things get rough

Control yourself contain yourself

You can and still remain yourself

If you will let serenity in your soul

You must contain yourself

Restrain yourself

And train yourself to gain yourself control

Control yourself contain yourself

Restrict yourself restrain yourself

And always let tranquility be your goal

Control yourself contain yourself

And if you can't refrain yourself

And try to act agreeably on the whole

Life is just too great to waste it being sad

Try to imitate the guy who grins

When things walk back

Control yourself contain yourself

And soon you won't complain yourself

If you will let serenity in your soul

You must contain yourself

Restrain yourself

And train yourself to gain yourself control
