Everybody Says Don’t Lyrics by Bobby Conte Thornton

Along the Way

2020

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
It isn't right
Don't it isn't nice
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't walk on the grass
Don't disturb the peace
Don't skate on the ice
Well, I say do
I say walk on the grass
It was meant to feel
I say sail
Tilt to the windmill
And if you fail, you fail
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't get out of line
When they say that then
Buddy, that's a sign
Nine times out of ten
Buddy, you are doing just fine
Make just a ripple
Come on be brave
This time a ripple
Next time a wave
Sometimes you have to start small
Climbing the tiniest wall
Maybe you're going to fall
But it's better than not starting at all
Everybody says no
Everybody says stop
Everybody says mustn't rock the boat
Mustn't touch a thing
Everybody says don't
Everybody says wait
Everybody says can't fight city hall
Can't upset the court
Can't laugh at the king
Well, I say try
I say
Laugh at the kings or they'll make you cry
Lose your poise
Fall if you have to
But buddy make a noise
Everybody says don't
Everybody says can't
Everybody says wait around for miracles
That's the way the world was made
I insist on miracles
If you do them
Miracles
Nothing to them
I say don't
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
