Lyrics

[Intro]

Think (Think)

Think (Think)

Think (Think)

Think (Think)

You think (Think)

Think (Think)

Think about it (Think)

[Chorus]

You better think (Think)

Think about what you're trying to do to me

Yeah, think (Think, think)

Let your mind go, let yourself be free

[Verse 1]

Let's go back, let's go back, let's go way on back when

I didn't even know you, you couldn't have been too much more than ten (Just a child)

I ain't no psychiatrist, I ain't no doctor with degrees

It don't take too much high IQs to see what you're doing to me

[Chorus]

You better think (Think)

Think about what you're trying to do to me

Oh, think (Think, think)

Let your mind go, let yourself be free

[Refrain]

Oh, freedom (Freedom)

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom

Yeah, freedom

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom

Oh, freedom

Hey, think about it

You, think about it

[PreChorus]

There ain't nothing you could ask, I could answer you, but I won't (I won't)

But I was gonna change, I'm not if you keep doing things I don't (Don't)

[Chorus]

Hey (Think)

Think about what you're trying to do to me (What you're trying to do)

Baby, think

Let your mind go, let yourself be free

[Verse 2]

People walking around every day, playing games and taking scores

Trying to make other people lose their minds, well, be careful you don't lose yours

[Chorus]

Yeah, think (Think)

Think about what you're trying to do to me

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Think, think)

Let your mind go, let yourself be free

[PostChorus]

You need me (Need me)

And I need you (Don't you know?)

Without each other

There ain't nothing people can do

Yeah, yeah, think about it, baby (What you're trying to do to me)

To the bone now

Think about it right now

[Refrain]

Oh, freedom (Freedom)

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom

Yeah, freedom

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom (Freedom)

Freedom

Freedom

Hey

You, think about it

[PreChorus]

Ain't nothing you could ask, I could answer you, but I won't (I won't)

But I was gonna change, I'm not if you keep doing things I don't

[Chorus]

Yeah, think (Think)

Think about what you're trying to do to me (What you're trying to do to me)

Baby, think

Let your mind go, let yourself be free

[PostChorus]

You need me (Need me)

And I need you (Don't you know?)

Without each other

There ain't nothing people can do

Yeah, yeah, think about it, baby (What you're trying to do to me)

To the bone now

Think about it, baby

[Outro]

Yeah (To the bone, for deepness)

For deepness (To the bone, for deepness)

Baby (To the bone, for deepness, think about it)

Yeah (To the bone, for deepness, to the bone, for deepness)

Baby, right now (To the bone, for deepness, think about it)

Think about it, yeah, yeah, yeah (To the bone, for deepness, to the bone, for deepness)

Baby, yeah, think about it (To the bone, for deepness, think about it)

To the bone, for deepness (To the bone, for deepness, to the bone, for deepness)

For deepness (To the bone, for deepness, think about it)

Now give me the Blues Brother, hey (You had better stop and think about it, think, think)
