[Verse 1]
I try to do what's right for me
But no one sees the way I see
And then I try to please them so
But, how far can this pleasing go?
[Pre-Chorus]
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start doing what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
[Chorus]
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find a person like you, you're one of a kind
If I were you, I'd change my mind
And start living for me in these changing times
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I cry 'cause I'm confused
Is this a fact of being used?
There is no life for me at all
'Cause I give myself at beck and call
[Pre-Chorus]
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start doing what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
[Chorus]
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find a person like you, you're one of a kind
If I were you, I'd change my mind
And start living for me in these changing times
[Bridge]
The life you're leading is dangerous
It's so dangerous, dangerous
The life you're leading is dangerous
Doggone dangerous, dangerous, dangerous
[Pre-Chorus]
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start doing what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
[Chorus]
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find a person like you, you're one of a kind
If I were you, I'd change my mind
And start living for me in these changing times
People will cry, if rain or sun
Try to please all and you've pleased none
