Michael Jackson Lyrics - Don't Let It Get You Down

Michael Jackson - Don't Let It Get You Down

Don't let it get you down
When you're not on top
A winner stumbles too
But gets up and never stops, no

Ain't it a doggone shame?
Lovin' ain't a friendly game
Don't let it get you down, oh no

Don't let it get you down
When the cards are marked
Pick up what's let and walk away (pick it up, pick it up)
Before you lose your heart (don't look back, girl)

Ain't it a doggone shame?
Lovin' ain't a friendly game
Don't let it get you down (oh, no)
Oh, no (don't let it)

Look at me
Don't it seem like I know what I'm talking about?
Talk to me
Let me be, be the one that can straighten it out, girl

(Don't let it get you down)
(Oh, no, don't let it)
(Don't let it get you down)
(Oh, no, don't let it)

Ain't it a doggone shame?
Lovin' ain't a friendly game
Don't let it get you down (oh, no, don't let it)

I can bring you sunshine, make you happy
(I can bring you sunshine)
Ain't no cloud skies hanging over me, yeah

Don't let it get you down

Don't let it get you down
You can start again
Now yesterday is gone
Let tomorrow be your friend
(Don't look back, girl) hey, don't look back, girl
My love is straight ahead
Don't let it get you down (oh, no)
Oh, no (don't let it)

Look at me
Don't it seem like I know what I'm talking about?
Talk to me
Let me be, be the one that can straighten it out, girl

I can straighten it out girl, yeah
(Don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
I can't straighten it out, girl, come on

Don't let it, let it, let it (don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
Don't let it, let it, let it
No, don't let it (don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it, let it, let it (don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
Don't let it, let it, let it
Don't let it get you down, come on (oh, no, don't let it)
Don't let it get you down, yeah (oh, no, don't let it)
Yeah, ha
Yeah, come on, baby (don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
Don't let it get you down (oh, no, don't let it)
Come on, sugar
Yeah, woo (don't let it get you down, oh, no, don't let it)
