Don't It Make You Feel Guilty

(album: Neither One Of Us - 1973)

You know in life you have to realize you're wrong
Before you can make them right
So I'd like to throw a few questions at you
And if this sounds like you brother and sister
Think about it

Do you just think of winning
No matter how it's done
Do you pat your brothers
On the back now
And kick them just for fun, mercy
Then you ought to take a look
A look at yourself
Because you're very cold inside

Those very same people
Who you cause a lotta pain
And have to fight with you when down
Now now now now now

Don't it make you feel guilty
Don't it make you feel ashamed
Don't it make you feel like
You're to blame, yeah mm hmm hmm

Now if a little love and understanding, lord
Is something you refuse to give
Knowing it'll cost you one thin dime
Lord, the longest day event

Then you're the kind of person, yes you are
Who will surely take advantage of
The man or the woman who truly cares for you
And they sincerely give you all of their love
Then you understand

Don't it make you feel guilty
Don't it make you feel ashamed
Don't it make you feel like
You're to blame, yeah Mm hmm hmm

Don't it make you feel guilty
Don't it make you feel ashamed
Don't it make you feel like
You're to blame, yeah Mm hmm hmm

Lord, show a little mercy
Please

Oh what if you feel you're doing something wrong
And you don't try tell me what's right, no
It just might be that very same child
Who will rob your house one night
Everybody plays as could as possible
It helps me to shape this world
But so far this world isn't much of a gift
To give to little boys and girls
All I want to know is

Don't it make you feel guilty
Don't it make you feel ashamed
Don't it make you feel like
You're to blame, yeah mm hmm hmm
