Dont Take That Attitude to Your Grave — текст песни (Ben Harper)

You say whats mine is mine

And whats yours is mine too

Now youve got more than you can spend

But all of the money

In the whole wide world

Is not gonna help you in the end

Now while theres still time to be saved

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Might be too late for you Im afraid

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Dont you take it there



I hear helicopters

Over my house every day

Shining their lights and flying low

Treat a child like a criminal

From the day that he is born

And youre gonna reap just what you sow

Now while theres still time to be saved

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Might be too late for you Im afraid

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Dont you take it there



So you can move your court case

Way across town

You can move it across the whole wide globe

But it aint gonna help your court case

Up in the sky

When you go to put on your white robe

Now while theres still time to be saved

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Might be too late for you Im afraid

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Dont you take it there



And you dare the children

To stay off of drugs

Now I dare you to stop letting them in

And how dare you point your finger

At a gang out on the street

While its you who is committing the sin

Now while theres still time to be saved

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Might be too late for you Im afraid

Dont take that attitude to your grave

Dont you take it there

They dont want it there

You know your mother taught you better

Dont take that attitude to your grave
