Let's Work Songtext

von Mick Jagger

No sitting down on your butt, the world don't owe you
No sitting down in a rut, I wanna show you
Don't waste your energy on making enemies
Just take a deep breath and work your way up

Let's work, be proud, stand tall, touch the clouds
Man and woman, be free, let's work, kill poverty

Let's work, be proud, stand tall, touch the clouds
Man and woman, be free, let's work, kill poverty

You're sitting down on your butt, and you get greedy
Started to lose your nuts, don't you look seedy
Can generosity bring you humility? So take a deep breath

Ain't gonna sweat for you, ain't gonna sigh for you
Ain't gonna cry for you, if you're lazy
Ain't gonna slave for you, ain't gonna hurt for you
It just won't work for you, if you're lazy

Let's work, be proud, stand tall, touch the clouds
Let's work, let's eat, let's live in ecstasy
Man and woman, be free, let's work, kill poverty

Let's work, be proud, stand tall, touch the clouds
Man and woman, be free! - Let's work, let's work!
