Lyrics Sly & The Family Stone

Sly & The Family Stone

Better Thee Than Me

Better thee than me, if you in that weather

Better thee than me, if you are heavy feather

Would you try to share a funny religion

Would you have to bear a dummy's decision

Better thee than me, I'm strokin' and hopin'

Better thee than me, I'm strokin' and hopin'

Better thee than me 'cause you're jokin'

What you sayin'

Better thee than me, help me there, I can make it

Let me be, better let me be while you fake it

Stop your pout, stop your pout, let me step and work it out

Every thing's gonna drop, you better change your route

Till the sail is jerkin'

Yeah, I would try to stay, but you're drivin'

Love yourself, love you babe

Better thee than me if you won't respect me
