Everybody Oughta Make A Change
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Change in the weather,
Change in the sea,
Come back baby,
You'll find a change in me.
Everybody, they ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later
We have to go down in that lonesome ground.
I changed suits,
I changed shirts,
I changed, baby,
Just to get shed of the dirt.
Everybody, we ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later
We're going down in that lonesome ground.
I changed honey,
I changed money,
I changed, people,
Just to keep from being funny.
Everybody, they ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later
We're going down in that lonesome ground.
Change in the ocean,
Change in the sea,
Come back baby,
You'll find a change in me.
Everybody, we ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later
We're going down in that lonesome ground.
