Lyrics Sly & The Family Stone – Shine It On
Text:
Bo bo bo bo bo when you want to
Shine it on
They may not like the way you walk
They may not listen when you talk
If what you’re doin’
If what you’re doin’ is all you can
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
When you want to
Sometimes the pressure could feel like tons
But keep on stickin’, stickin’ to your guns
When you’re tryin’ to do your best
Don’t you worry, worry, worry about the mess
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
When you want to
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
One ounce of label is all they need
And a pound of care you give indeed
But when they notice only one gram
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
When you want to
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
x4
Sometimes the pressure could feel like tons
But keep on stickin’ to your guns
When you’re tryin’, when you’re tryin’
To do your best
Don’t you worry about the mess
Shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
When you want to
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
We want to, we’ve got to
We want to shine it on
