Cold, Cold World

From one friend to another

It's seems that somethings been bothering you

If you've got a minute

Maybe there's something that I can say or do

See, I realize that life has it's changes

And sometimes things just don't go right

But here's one thing I want you to think about

As you lie in your bed tonight

When the whole world seems against you

And your whole life seems unborn

And all you ever wanted was a little peace

I can understand just how you feel

But a little bit of peace of mind

Nowadays is so hard to find

And you can't even find it in your sleep

Here's some advice that I think you should keep

When baby

(Don't let this cold world get you down)

Peace will hold on

(Don't let this cold world get you down, down, down)

Don't let it get you down, no

Cold, cold world get you down

Cold, cold world get you down

Listen, dry your eyes, don't cry no more

What in the world do you think that a friend is for?

See there's always somethin'

That we can do, me and you

So when things don't always go your way

You've got to prepare yourself

Each and every day

For the things that life will put you through

I'm tellin' you, will you listen to me?

(Don't let this cold world get you down)

When times are hard and friends are few

(Don't let this cold world get you down, down, down)

Don't let it get the best of you

Don't let it get the best of you

(Cold, cold world get you down) Don't do it

(Cold, cold world get you down)

I know the road sometimes seems rough

(Cold, cold world get you down)

And the going gets a little tough

(Cold, cold world get you down)

But hold on, hold on

I wonder what ever happened to

Oh, baby

That held me first that I once knew

You can't let nothin'

You can't let nothin'

Nothin' ever bother you

No, don't do it

(Cold, cold world get you down)

Don't let it

Cold, cold world get you down

Hold on, be strong

(Cold, cold world get you down)

(Cold, cold world get you down)

I know to some folk the life come easy (Cold, cold world)

(Cold, cold world get you down)

To others, life come hard

(Cold, cold world get you down)

Some folks keep on tryin' while other's just get tired, hold on

(Don't let this cold, cold world get you down)

(Don't let this cold, cold world get you down)

(Don't let this cold, cold world get you down)

I need to say the things that I've learned

(Don't let this cold world get you down)

I don't wanna see nobody else get burned

(Don't let this cold, cold world get you down)

Let's give it up

(Don't let this cold, cold world get you down)
