Let's Think About Livin' Lyrics - Billy Walker

In every other song that I've heard lately some fellow get shot 

And his baby and his best friend both died with him as likely as nut 

In half of the other songs some cat's cryin' are ready to die 

We've lost most all of our happy people and I'm a wonderin' why 

Let's think about livin' let's think about lovin' 

Let's think about hoopin' and a hopin' and a poppin' and a lovey dovey dovin' 

Let's forget about a whinnin' and a cryin' and a shootin' and a dyin' 

And a fellow with a switchblade knife 

Let's think about livin' let's think about life 

[ guitar ] 

Well we lost ol' Marty Robbins back in El Paso a little while back 

And now Miss Mary John or one of them girls they're wearin' black 

Cathy's Clown's got Don and Phil so lonesome they could die 

If we keep on losin' our singers like that I'll be the only one you can buy 

Let's think about livin'... 

Let's think about livin'... 

Let's think about livin' let's think about life
