Don't Let The Joneses Get You Down (Single Version|Mono) - The Temptations[00:00:00]

People gather round me [00:00:32]

This is to who it may concern[00:00:34]

I'm not tryin' to run your life[00:00:36]

But you're never too old to learn[00:00:38]

Stop worryin' about your neighbors[00:00:40]

And the fancy things they got[00:00:42]

'Cause if you do you'll find it's true [00:00:44]

You're gonna wind up on the spot[00:00:46]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:00:49]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:00:51]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:00:57]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:00:58]

You may not believe it but nine times out of ten it's true[00:01:12]

The people you're tryin' to keep up with are tryin' to keep up too[00:01:16]

Remember that old sayin';[00:01:20]

"All that glitters ain't gold"[00:01:22]

Take heed don't ignore it [00:01:24]

And to your money tightly hold[00:01:26]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:01:28]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:01:30]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:01:36]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:01:38]

You're a leader yourself but you don't even know it[00:01:54]

You're so busy followin' Joneses[00:01:58]

You ain't got time to show it[00:02:00]

Keeping up with the Joneses [00:02:02]

It only makes your life a mess[00:02:03]

Bill collectors tranquilizers and gettin' deeper in debt[00:02:06]

You better leave the Joneses alone[00:02:10]

You better leave ---oh leave--- the Joneses alone[00:02:18]

Joneses got a new car today[00:02:26]

Here's what you should say; Hooray for the Joneses[00:02:29]

Instead you worry 'til your whole head turns gray[00:02:34]

Worryin' about the Joneses[00:02:39]

Remember it's their car and they're the ones who had to pay[00:02:42]

So leave (boom boom) the Joneses alone[00:02:46]

Your car might be old but remember;[00:02:51]

It never fails to get you where you want to go[00:02:54]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:02:58]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:03:01]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:03:07]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:03:08]

You're doing fine[00:03:30]

Don't let the Joneses blow your mind[00:03:32]

If you see somethin' you want and[00:03:37]

You know you can't afford it[00:03:40]

Well the very next thing for you to do[00:03:42]

Is start saving towards it[00:03:44]

The Joneses have been the downfall of[00:03:46]

Many a person you see[00:03:48]

So people take my advice and let the Joneses be[00:03:50]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:03:54]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:03:56]

Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones [00:04:02]

Don't let the Joneses get you down[00:04:04]

You're doing fine[00:04:09]

Don't let the Joneses blow your mind[00:04:12]

You're doing fine[00:04:18]

Don't let the Joneses blow your mind[00:04:20]
