You better quit trying to live my life for me
You better quit trying stop nagging me so constantly
You better quit trying, I just want for you to let me be
Cause I've got who I want to show me the way.
I Don't need sympathy so please go your way.
Go away you hypocrite go away
O promise is a comfort to a fool
you hypocrite go away-o
I dont need no sympathy you hypocrite go away-
And please don't you sorry for me you hypocrite go away-o
Cause since I've seen the light
You dont know what its done for me
And its such a fight only who'se
Got eyes to see can see (rep.)
You better quit trying
And give the little youth a chance
You better quit trying
For they can make this place a better land
You better quit trying
I hope you elders understand
They got their own mind. They too can lead the way
They can make the garden red, gold and green for little children to play
Go away, you hypocrite go away-o
Promise is a comfort to a fool you hypocrite go away-o
I dont need no sympathy you hypocrite go away-o and please
Dont you sorry for me you hypocrite go away-o
Cause since I've seen the light
You dont know what its done for me
And its such a light only whose
Got eyes to see can see (rep.)
You better quit trying to live my life for me
You better quit trying stop nagging me so constantly
You better quit trying and give the little youth a chance
You better quit trying for they can make this place a better land (rep.).
