2012 Blues (Don’t Worry, Keep Praying)
Sung to tune of ‘Don’t Worry, Be Happy’ by Bobby McFerrin
Here’s a little thought I had,
That might help you out when you’re feeling bad
Don’t worry, Keep praying
If you’re looking for advice that’s sound,
That’ll keep you up when you’re feeling down
Don’t worry, Keep praying, Don’t worry, Keep praying
(CHORUS)
Who—ever told you, you were in control of things,
That your brain is king of kings,
Didn’t have a clue
Who—ever told you that your will could set you free,
Make the world a lot less crazy
Didn’t tell you true
Here’s a little help I’ve found,
That keeps the blues from hanging around
Don’t worry, Keep praying
The news is bad, looks like hope’s a lie
Just people being people is the reason why
Don’t worry, Keep praying, Don’t worry, Keep praying
(CHORUS)
Who—ever told you, you were in control of things
That your brain is king of kings,
Didn’t have a clue
Who—ever told you that your mind could figure out,
What this world is all about,
Didn’t tell you true
Years and tears ago I wish I understood,
Put the weight on God, it feels so good
Don’t worry, Keep praying
Since the beginning of time, trying to make sense of it all,
But peace only comes when you realize your mind’s too small
Don’t worry, Keep praying, Don’t worry, Keep praying
(CHORUS)
Who—ever told you, you were in control of things
That your brain is king of kings,
Didn’t have a clue
Who—ever told you that your will could set you free,
Make the world a lot less crazy
Didn’t tell you true
Don’t worry. Keep praying. About everything.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
