Don’t lose your eye, man, to spite your face
I don’t want you to lose your eye, man, to spite your face
‘Cause if people started snitchin’ on you
Can’t hide at no place
If you do wrong, the world gonna find you out
If you a wrongdoing person, the world gonna find you out
You know you can’t do wrong and get by
I know yous tryin’ to dodge that doubt
If I was you, I’d play fair in anything I do
If I was you, I’d play fair in anything I do
Any time the people find out that you’re crooked, man
They’re ain’t gonna do nothin’ in the world for you
My daddy taught me ever since I was a child
Oh, daddy taught me ever since I was a little child
Always treat your neighbors right
Be fair with your friends likewise
I don’t want you to lose your eye, man, to spite your face
I don’t want you to lose that eye, oh man, to spite your face
‘Cause if people started snitchin’ on you
Can’t hide at no place
If you do wrong, the world’s gonna find you out
If you a wrongdoing person, the world’s gonna find you out
You know you can’t do wrong and get by
I know yous been tryin’ to dodge that doubt
If I was you, I’d play fair in anything I do
If I was you, I’d play fair in anything I do
Any time people find you’re crooked, man
They ain’t gonna do a thing in the world for you
My daddy taught me ever since I was a child
My daddy taught me ever since I was a little child
Always treat your neighbors right
Be fair with your friends likewise

Beginning From The Ending
Watching the ending Remembering how it started Wishes and dreams became reality Oh, the dawn, till the golden hour It starts at the end, then moves on To the next episode …
Blowin In The Wind
(originally by Bob Dylan) How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man? Yes, and how many seas must the white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand? …
Changing World
Why am I afraid of life? Like my heart and soul and mind Would love to dwell? Why am I afraid to say what I really feel? Why am I afraid to live a life I’d love? …
Die For It
End of the rainbow, a heart of gold And in the film, your story’s told The more you love, the more you gain And when you lose, it’s all the same Maybe you try …
Don't Lose Your Eye
Don’t lose your eye, man, to spite your face I don’t want you to lose your eye, man, to spite your face ‘Cause if people started snitchin’ on you …
