Be What You Are by The Staple Singers


Oh man you heard enough

Trying to live a risking life

Don't go out and buy a cadillac

If you know your money ain't right

 

Fun is so much easier

When within your mean

If you can't afford caviar

Don't be ashamed to eat pork and beef yeah

 

I'm not trying to tell you how to do it

I'm only saying put some thought into it

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Just because you made this child

Attend some private school

You try to send yours

Knowing only time will really might able to

 

Don't try to live like a king yeah

On a poor mans take

That's one reason there are so many

People are hurting today lord

I'm not trying to tell you how to do it

I'm only saying put some thought into it

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Don't try to live this high

When you see your boss man do yeah

Just remember you work for him

And he don't work for you

 

It was something that you want oh

And you know you can't afford it

Don't be ashamed to a put a lid down on it

[incomprehensible] hold it yeah

 

I'm not trying to tell you how to do it

I'm only saying put some thought into it

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

Be what you are my friend

And live the life

 

Be what you are my friend

And live the life
