Don’t Let It Get You Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When the friends can't be found
And my girl is out of town
I come home to an empty house
The telephone is all I have
[Chorus]
When my plans
Don't work out
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
[Verse 2]
There's a club I can't get in
Every week, it's the same damn thing
I get mad, I want to cry
It's my skin they don't like
[Chorus]
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
[Bridge]
When my world don't look good
Not the way I know it should
And my time is running short
I didn't do all I ought
When the friends can't be found
And my girl is out of town
I come home to an empty house
The telephone is all I have
[Chorus]
When my plans
Don't work out
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
[Verse 2]
There's a club I can't get in
Every week, it's the same damn thing
I get mad, I want to cry
It's my skin they don't like
[Chorus]
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
[Bridge]
When my world don't look good
Not the way I know it should
And my time is running short
I didn't do all I ought
[Chorus]
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
When my plans (When my plans)
Don't work out (Don't work out)
Mama says don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
