Let’s Think About Living

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 a-wondering why [Chorus] Let's think about living Let's think about loving Let's think about the whoopin' And hoppin and boppin' And the lovie, lovie dovin' Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin' And the shooting and the dying And the fellow with a switchblade knife Let's think about living Let's think about life [Verse 2] 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 Cathy's Clown's got Don and Phil where they feel like they could die If we keep on a-losin' our singers like that I'll be the only one you can buy [Chorus] Think about living Let's think about loving Let's think about the whoopin' And hoppin and boppin' And the lovie, lovie dovin' Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin' And the shooting and the dying And the fellow with a switchblade knife Let's think about living Let's think about life (Alright) [Chorus] Let's think about living Let's think about loving Let's think about the whoopin' And hoppin and boppin' And the lovie, lovie dovin' Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin' And the shooting and the dying And the fellow with a switchblade knife Let's think about living Let's think about life Now, let's go for it Let's think about living Let's think about loving Let's think about the whoopin' And hoppin and boppin' And the lovie, lovie dovin' Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin' And the shooting and the dying And the fellow with a switchblade knife Let's think about living Let's think about life [Outro] Let's think about living Let's think about life
