Let's Live for Ourselves Songtext
von George Jackson

Stop tryin′ to live like other people and just live for ourselves

Babe,let us stop tryin' to live like other people

And just live for ourselves

Clothes you know we really can′t afford to buy
Let us stop tryin' to live a lie
And that car we really can't afford yet
Let′s not get deeper and deeper in debt

Tryin′ to live like other people
Let us just live for ourselves
L believe it's okay
Let′s stop tryin' to live like other people
And just live for ourselves, baby

Money, you know we haven′t got a big lump sum
Sometimes we don't know where our next dollar is coming from
And them parties we been throwin′ every night
Let's slow down with our money, start lookin' right {??)


Let′s stop livin′ like other people
And just live for ourselves
Let's try that baby, let us stop tryin′ to live like other people
And just live for ourselves
Yeah, baby

Try it, baby
Let's try it, baby
Try it, baby

Listen, baby
We may not have the finest things out of life
As long as we are comfortable
Everything is still alright
Let′s stop spendin' so much on things we don′t need by ourselves
And leave The Joneses, baby, to somebody else

Let's stop tryin' to live like other people
And just live for ourselves
I′m gonna try it, baby
Let′s stop tryin' to live like other people
And just live for ourselves
Hey, baby


We first started out we didn′t have a lot
Let's be grateful for what we got
And stop tryin′ to live like other poeple
And just live for ourselves
Yeah, baby, let's stop tryin′ to live like other people
And just live for ourselves
(???)
Live for yourself now
Live for yourself
Hey, hey. live for yourself now
Live for yourself
Livin' cheaply sometime is not a crime
Live like other people
And just live for yourself
I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh yeah, yeah
