Don’t Let It Get Next To You

[Chorus]
Don't you let it get next to you
Before you only get what's due you

[Verse 1]
When I was a boy, and I broke a toy
I could always run to mama and talk it over
Now, she knew just what to do
Just what say to help to pull me through
She told me...

[Chorus]
Don't you let it get next to you
Before you only get what's due you
Don't you let it get next to you
Before you only get what's due you

[Verse 2]
So, now I'm a man and I understand
What it means to have a failure
When my little boy falls and breaks his toy
I know just what to do to pull him through
I tell him...

[Chorus]
Don't you let it get next to you (No need to worry)
Before you only get what's due you
Don't you let it get next to you
Before you only get what's due you

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Don't you let it get next to you
(Trust your mother, 'cause she know what to do, baby)
Before you only get what's due you
Don't you let it get next to you
Before you only get what's due you
