Текст песни Ben harper - Don't Take That Attitude To Your Grave

You say : "What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine too!"
Now you've got more than you can spend, but all of the money in the whole wide world is not gonna help you in the end.

Now, while there's still time to be saved, don't take that attitude to your grave.
Might be too late for you, I'm afraid.
So, don't take that attitude to your grave.
Don't you take it there?

I hear helicopters over my house every day.
Shining their lights and flying low, treat a child like a criminal from the day that he is born.
You're gonna reap just what you sow.

Now while there's still time to be saved, don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid.
So, don't take that attitude to your grave.
Don't you take it there?

So you can move your court case, way across town.
You can move it across the whole wide globe but it ain't gonna help your court case, up in the sky, when you go to put on your white robe.

Now while there's still time to be saved, don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid.
So, don't take that attitude to your grave.
Don't you take it there?

You dare the children to stay off of drugs, now I dare you to stop letting them in.
And how dare you point your finger at a gang out on the street while it's you who is committing the sin.

Now while there's still time to be saved, don't take that attitude to your grave
Might be too late for you I'm afraid.
So, don't take that attitude to your grave.
Don't you take it there?
They don't want it there.
You know your mother taught you better.
Don't take that attitude to your grave.
