[00:00:00] Long As You're Living - Abbey Lincoln

[00:00:02] Written by：Brown/Priester/Turrentine

[00:00:23] Forgive me if I seem to preach

[00:00:25] But there is something that I want to say

[00:00:27] A message that I hope will reach people who are throwing life away

[00:00:31] I call it my philosophy that is why I pass it on to you

[00:00:36] Because it works so well for me it helps me get away from strife

[00:00:39] I hope you listen carefully they say the truth will make you free

[00:00:43] And that's the way you want to be 'cause brother this is your life

[00:00:48] Long as you're livin' always remember

[00:00:52] Time is for spendin' but there's an ending

[00:00:56] While you are sleepin' lifetime is creepin'

[00:01:00] Wake up and taste it foolish to waste it

[00:01:04] Sample and savor all of it's flavor

[00:01:08] Long as you're livin'

[00:01:12] Long as you're livin' always remember

[00:01:16] Folks who are lazy are playing crazy

[00:01:20] Better keep movin' keep on improvin'

[00:01:24] You won't be hurried after you're buried

[00:01:28] Live every minute put yourself in it

[00:01:32] Long as you're livin'

[00:01:36] Long as you're livin' always remember

[00:01:40] You'll never beat life don't try to cheat life

[00:01:44] All in are brothers do unto others

[00:01:48] Love's for enjoying hate's for destroying

[00:01:52] Never forget it or you'll regret it

[00:01:56] Long as your living

[00:02:00] Forgive me if I seem to preach

[00:02:02] But there is something that I want to say

[00:02:04] A message that I hope will reach people who are throwing life away

[00:02:08] I call it my philosophy that is why I pass it on to you

[00:02:12] Because it works so well for me it helps me get away from strife

[00:02:16] I hope you listen carefully they say the truth will make you free

[00:02:20] And that's the way you want to be 'cause brother this is your life
