作词 : Strong, Whitfield | |
People gather round me... This is to who it may concern | |
I'm not tryin' to run your life but you're never too old to learn | |
Stop worryin' about your neighbors and the fancy things they got | |
'Cause if you do you'll find it's true, you're gonna wind up on the spot | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
You may not believe it but nine times out of ten it's true | |
The people you're tryin' to keep up with are tryin' to keep up too | |
Remember that old sayin'; "All that glitters ain't gold" | |
Take heed, don't ignore it, and to your money tightly hold | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
You're a leader yourself but you don't even know it | |
You're so busy followin' Joneses you ain't got time to show it | |
Keeping up with the Joneses, it only makes your life a mess | |
Bill collectors, tranquilizers and gettin' deeper in debt | |
You better leave the Joneses alone | |
You better leave ---oh leave--- the Joneses alone | |
Joneses got a new car today | |
Here's what you should say; Hooray for the Joneses | |
Instead you worry 'til your whole head turns gray | |
Worryin' about the Joneses | |
Remember it's their car and they're the ones who had to pay | |
So leave (boom boom) the Joneses alone | |
Your car might be old but, remember; It never fails to get you where you want to go | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
You're doing fine | |
Don't let the Joneses blow your mind | |
If you see somethin' you want and you know you can't afford it | |
Well the very next thing for you to do is start saving towards it | |
The Joneses have been the downfall of many a person you see | |
So, people, take my advice and let the Joneses be | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Jones... Don't let the Joneses get you down | |
You're doing fine | |
Don't let the Joneses blow your mind | |
You're doing fine | |
Don't let the Joneses blow your mind |
