Life

Sly And The Family Stone · Greatest hits [1990]

Life, life



Clouds and clowns



You don't have to come down



Life, life



Tell it like it is



You don't have to die before you live



You might get angry sometimes



But don't let it turn you around



All you gotta do is get your livin' now



Life, life



Clouds and clowns



You don't have to come down



Life, life



Tell it like it is



You don't have to die before you live



You might be scared of somethin' look at Mr. Stewart



He's the only person he has to fear



He'd only let himself get near



He don't trust nobody



If he stopped bein' so shady



He could have a nice young lady



Life, life



Tell it like it is



You don't have to die before you live



You're gonna be sad sometimes



You might wake up to find your pet is gone



But maybe, he's tired of bein' alone



Dog gets hip, it has to go



If you're lovin' you can't be sad no more



Life, life



Clouds and clowns



You don't have to come down



Life, life



Tell it like it is



You don't have to die before you live
