Practice What I Preach Songtext

von Hank Williams Jr.

People I think it's time we stop this runnin' around
This world is going too fast we'd like to slow it down
Don't let them talk you into doin' what you don't want to
Just learn to say no and learn how to refuse

Cause you don't owe nobody nothing except God above
Go out and go after the things in life you love
Don't try to force it if it ain't going smooth
The one person that you should never try to fool is you
You can make it to the top but only you'll know when to reach
And I am not just talking, I practice what I preach

Maybe you don't do all the things you're supposed to
Your boss gives you a job you hate but you smile
That's the rule
You see yourself playing the game and it's rubbin' you wrong
Ah, you don't know how much more you'll take
How long can it go on

Cause you don't owe nobody nothing except God above
Go out and go after the things in life you love
Don't try to force it if it ain't going smooth
The one person that you should never try to fool is you
You can make it to the top but only you'll know when to reach
And I am not just talking, I practice what I preach

No I am not just talking cause I practice what I preach
