Let's Think About Livin':Bob Luman.
#7 on the rock charts & #9 on the country charts
in 1960.
#1.
D
In every other song that I've heard lately,
A D
some fellow gets shot.
D
And his baby and his best friend both die with him,
A D
as likely as not.
G
In half of the other songs some Cat's crying,
D
or ready to die.
D
We've lost most of our happy people,
A D
and I'm wondering why.
Chorus:
D A D
Let's think about living..let's think about loving.
A
Let's think about the whoopin' and hoppin and boppin'
D
and the lovie, lovie dovin'.
D G
Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin'
and the shooting and the dying..
D
and the fella with a switchblade knife..
A D
Let's think about living..let's think about life.
#2.
D A
We lost old Marty Robbins down in El Paso,
D
a little while back.
D A
And now Miss Patti Page or one of them,
D
is wearing black.
G D
And Cathy's Clown has Don and Phil where they feel like
they could die.
D
If we keep on losin' our singers like that,
A D
I'll be the only one you can buy!
Chorus:
