Four (Remastered 2016)-Lambert Hendricks & Ross

Of the wonderful things that you get outta life, there are four And they may not be many, but nobody needs any more Of the many facts making the list of life Truth takes the lead And to relax, knowing the gist of life It's truth you need Then the second is honor and happiness makes number three When you put them together you'll know what the last one must be Baby so the truth, honor and happiness And one thing more Meaning only wonderful, wonderful love that'll make it four Don't you know the score? Well. people, when they're younger, never realize the pleasure-treasure life's got But, as they grow older, realize a lot They got their minds on all the wrongest scenes An things that cost a lotta' money, but it's really very funny; they fade away and don't' amount to a hill o' beans Funny how the things in life we really should adore We forget, or ignore - end up poor- Spent a lot o' time on money and madness and end up in sadness Youth is the time when we should see the light Cause when we're old wasted, the dues for what we've tasted run so high That we pay 'till we die-then we know that youth that made us strong is wasted on the young, So-enjoy it gaily! Love life! And live it daily You'll find a lot of things to bring you joy and give peace of mind Get it while the gettin's good, 'cause every body, if they only would, life would be a set- Live would be a groovy set-groovy as a movie Wail! Wail! Let your voice be heard. Spread the work! Every body's hear's got ears Only gotta' teach em' how to use em-not abuse 'em So take a tip from me: the world's everything it oughta' be as long as you can be sure There is no more to life than same ol' four. Hard to believe, I know, but time will show That even though you think it's boresome, two-and-two together constitute a foursome! That's all -four is the figure-that's all! Ain't gonna be gettin' any bigger, doesn't matter how you slice it up, you'll never change it You count everything that fate throws into life potstill really four is all you've got. Haven't they told you about he little pleasures that are part of all the rest You live a little and love a little And take a little and give a lot-still the total is happiness But that's only one -you've just begun; there's gonna be more After this are truth and honor shinin' And love combinin' to make it four-no more.
