Don't Let It Get You Down — Fine Young Cannibals

When the friends can't be found And the girl is out of town I come home to an empty house The telephone is all I have

When my plans don't work out Mama says, don't let it get you down Don't let it get you down

There's a club I can't get in Every week it's the same damn thing I get mad I want to cry it's my skin they don't like

When my plans don't work out Mama says, don't let it get you down Don't let it get you down

Now my world don't look good Not the way I know it should And my time is running short I didn't do all I ought

When my plans don't work out Mama says, don't let it get you down Don't let it get you down
