You Got To Go Down |
You better learn how to treat everybody |
For you got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat everybody |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to treat everybody |
For you got to go down |
Spoken: Some of you people don’t realize it. |
Taking the world by storm. |
Don’t even know hoe to treat your family. |
Doing all kind of ways. |
Living all kind of lives. |
Saying everything before your children. |
Treat your wife all kind of ways. |
Treat your husband every kind of way. |
God says: |
You better learn how to treat your husband |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat your husband |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to treat your husband |
You got to go down |
Spoken: *Cause* the mother to get careless. |
But God tells you how to raise a |
child. |
You got to *place you* say everything before the child. |
And do |
everything before. |
God says: |
You better learn how to live ‘fore children |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to live ‘fore children |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to live ‘fore everybody |
You got to go down |
Spoken: And you’re traveling through the world. |
And don’t know how to treat |
your wife. |
And giving everybody else the thing that you ought to give to your |
wife. |
God says: |
You better learn how to treat your companion |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat your companion |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to treat your companion |
You got to go down |
Spoken: And you’re traveling through the world. |
Some people think; |
just because a man is a drunkard; |
And will drink liquor sometime and cut up and raise sand; |
if they come and |
carry him to your house |
You got to carry him in before the Lord. |
When God save him *you can suggest |
saving your own self*. |
God says: |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
For you got to go down, you got to go down |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
You got to go down, you got to go down |
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
The life you’re living won’t do to trust |
You better learn how to treat that drunkard |
For you got to go down |
