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!
