abbey lincoln - long as you're living lyrics
forgive me if i seem to preach
but there is somethin’ that i wanna say
a message that i hope will reach
people who are throwin’ life away
i call it my philosophy
that is why i pass it on to you
because it works so well for me
and helps me get away from strife
i hope you listen carefully
they say the truth will make you free
and that’s the way you wanna be
’cause brother, this is your life
long as you’re livin’, always remember
time is for spendin’, but there’s an endin’
while you are sleepin’, lifetime is creepin’
wake up and taste it, foolish to waste it
sample and savor all of its flavor
long as you’re livin’
long as you’re livin’, always remember
folks that are lazy are playin’ crazy
better keep movin’, keep on improvin’
you won’t be hurried after you’re buried
live every minute, put yourself in it
long as you’re livin’
long as you’re livin’, always remember
you’ll never beat life, don’t try to cheat life
all men are brothers, do onto others
love’s for enjoying, hate’s for destroying
never forget it or you’ll regret it
long as you’re livin’
forgive me if i seem to preach
but there was somethin’ that i had to say
a message that i hope will reach
people who are throwin’ life away
i call it my philosophy
that is why i pass it on to you
because it works so well for me
and helps me get away from strife
i hope you listen carefully
they say the truth will make you free
and that’s the way you wanna be
’cause brother, this is your life
