Jimmy Buffett - Bend a Little текст песни

By: jimmy buffett, buzz cason

1971

Evil, its been here all along

Good things, they just seem to have come and gone

In my life I have seen so much go wrong

And theres only one way left for us to get along

Chorus:

You got to bend a little one way or the other

You got to leave your mind open to discover

Seems Ive been fightin it all along

You got to bend a little no matter which side youre on

Or soon youll be gone

Papers, they print it every day

Housewife, wraps the garbage then throws it away

I dont guess she thinks they have that much to say

But when the time is right shell be the lady with so much to pay

Chorus:

You got to bend a little one way or the other

You got to leave your mind open to discover

Seems Ive been fightin it all along

You got to bend a little no matter which side youre on

Or soon youll be gone

History, it teaches much too well

Nations, had to rise up before they fell

And my eyes see the story theyre tryin to tell

And tonight I think I heard the final toll of the bell

Chorus:

We better bend a little one way or the other

You got to leave your mind open to discover

Seems Ive been fightin it all along

Youve got to bend a little no matter which side youre on

Or soon youll be gone

Seems Ive been fightin it all along

Ive been a fightin and a fightin

Got to bend a little no matter which side youre on

Its a long and and dirty battle

It seems Ive been fightin it all along

Ive been a tearin and a pullin

Got a bend a little no matter which side youre on

Yes I know cause

It seems Ive been fightin it all along

Ive been a punchin and a gougin

And it seems it dont matter which side youre on

Ive been a tearin and a rippin and

It seems Ive been fightin it all along
