Let's Think About Livin':Bob Luman. 
#7 on the rock charts & #9 on the country charts 
in 1960. 

#1. 
D 
In every other song that I've heard lately, 
A                         D 
some fellow gets shot. 
D 
And his baby and his best friend both die with him, 
A                D 
as likely as not. 
   G 
In half of the other songs some Cat's crying, 
D 
or ready to die. 
D 
We've lost most of our happy people, 
       A                    D 
and I'm wondering why. 

Chorus: 
D                        A                                D 
Let's think about living..let's think about loving. 
                                 A 
Let's think about the whoopin' and hoppin and boppin' 
                              D 
and the lovie, lovie dovin'. 
D                              G 
Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin' 

and the shooting and the dying.. 
             D 
and the fella with a switchblade knife.. 
                           A                                D 
Let's think about living..let's think about life. 

#2. 
D                                                            A 
We lost old Marty Robbins down in El Paso, 
                   D 
a little while back. 
D                                                      A 
And now Miss Patti Page or one of them, 
                 D 
is wearing black. 
       G                                                                     D 
And Cathy's Clown has Don and Phil where they feel like  

they could die. 
D 
If we keep on losin' our singers like that, 
    A                                    D 
I'll be the only one you can buy! 

Chorus: 
ADD: 
D                        A                               D 
Let's think about livin'..let's think about life.(x2) Fade..
