Ac‐Cent‐Tchu‐Ate the Positive Songtext
von Willie Nelson

You′ve got to accentuate
The positive eliminate the negative
And latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister In-Between

You′ve got to spread joy
Up to the maximum bring gloom
Down to the minimum
Have faith
Or pandemonium's liable to walk upon the scene


To illustrate my last remark
Jonah in the whale Noah in the ark
What did they do just when everything looked so dark

You've got to accentuate
The positive eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don′t mess with Mister In-Between

To illustrate my last remark
Jonah in the whale Noah in the ark
What did they do just when everything looked so dark

I said you′ve got to accentuate
The positive eliminate the negative
And latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister In-Between


Don′t mess with Mister In-Between
