Lyrics:Winwood/Capaldi/Wood Music:Winwood/Capaldi/Wood | |
Do yourself a favor | |
Wake up to your mind | |
Life is what you make it | |
You see but still your blind | |
Get yourself together, give before you take | |
You'll find out the hard way | |
Soon you're going to break | |
Smiling Phases, going places | |
Even when they bust you | |
Keep on smiling through and through | |
And you'll be amazed at the gaze on their faces | |
As they sentence you | |
You don't need a lawyer | |
When you're in a fix | |
Someone gets the pay off | |
You're friends are full of tricks | |
How could you love something | |
That you just can't buy? | |
Own up to the truth girl | |
Your mother's gone on by | |
Your companion, brings you flowers | |
You just hang him up | |
And keep him waiting there for hours | |
And you should just see the look on his face | |
As you slide down the rail |

Do yourself a favor | |
Wake up to your mind | |
Life is what you make it | |
You see but still your blind | |
Get yourself together, give before you take | |
You' ll find out the hard way | |
Soon you' re going to break | |
Smiling Phases, going places | |
Even when they bust you | |
Keep on smiling through and through | |
And you' ll be amazed at the gaze on their faces | |
As they sentence you | |
You don' t need a lawyer | |
When you' re in a fix | |
Someone gets the pay off | |
You' re friends are full of tricks | |
How could you love something | |
That you just can' t buy? | |
Own up to the truth girl | |
Your mother' s gone on by | |
Your companion, brings you flowers | |
You just hang him up | |
And keep him waiting there for hours | |
And you should just see the look on his face | |
As you slide down the rail |
