lyrics
SITTING AND WATCHING Dennis Brown
oo oo oo oo oo
1
Sitting here watching
fools like themselves when
they should all be thinking of
getting to know themselves
while life goes on
everyone's got to stand strong
you can't surrender
no, no, no
2
Giving your heart and soul
to vanity, yeah
makes your life filled with
pain and misery
while life goes on
everyone's got to stand strong
you can't surrender
no, no, no, oh no
oo oo oo oo oo
whoa yeah
got to be good to yourself, yeah
oo oo oo oo oo
KEEP ON MOVIN
Lord, I gotta keep on, movin
Lord, I gotta get on, down
Lord, I gotta keep on, movin
where my heart is found
