Wake Up And Give Yourself A Chance To Live |
| I know sometimes, during the hassles of the day |
| You feel that «What the heck? |
| The harder I try, the rougher it get hit» |
| And when you do everything you can to make evrything be alright |
| And meet your bills, you understand, and your loved one seems to thank you like: |
| «Hey, you’re not trying, you could do a little bit better» |
| Nobody understands where you’re coming from, you say to yourself: |
| «Hey, I gotta prove it to me 'cause I know where I’m at» |
| And this is what you do |
| I know sometimes you feel the world has turned its back on you |
| But don’t give up, it’ll come through for you |
| So wake up, baby |
| Wake up, baby |
| Give yourself a chance |
| You owe that to yourself |
| So wake up, baby, give yourself a chance to live |
| This morning I got up, heh, feeling kinda down |
| But I say that’s always the way |
| If you get yourself up off the ground |
| Let me wake up |
| And give myself a chance |
| I’ve got to wake right up |
| Wake right up and give yourself a chance to live |
| I know you’re just human |
| And sometimes it can be a sho’nuff ruin |
| But when the feeling’s too hard |
| Just take it to the Supreme |
| Force, and that’s God |
| Wake up, baby |
| I’ve got to wake on up |
| Everybody needs to wake right up |
| Give yourself a chance to live |
| It’s all there for you just go and get it |
| Wake on up |
| You owe it to yourself and no one else |
