Lyrics
Don’t live too high on the hog
Tomorrow’s another day
Take my advice
or throw it away
If you like what I say
I’ll share more with you
another day, some other day
Just don’t flatter yourself
Don’t flatter yourself
Just don’t flatter yourself
Don’t flatter yourself
I am always right
‘til proven wrong
I am not smart enough
to get depressed
I don’t push bounderies
unless they are my own
You know, you know
share and share alike
And above all else
don’t flatter yourself
Don’t flatter yourself
Just don’t flatter yourself
On the ground
right before me
the sun drops down
its shadow lines
I drink my drinks
one at a time
until half past
closing time
So above all else
Be good to yourself
Be good to yourself
Go good for yourself
With or without hard work
man needs a woman
Watch out she don’t
come down on ya
‘Cause life is your chance
for comfort and open air
Whatever you do
stay out of the electric chair
Don’t get mad at yourself
Don’t get mad at yourself
Just don’t get at us
Don’t get mad at yourself
You might get desperate
You may go easy
But spare us, please, please, please
Then don’t flatter yourself
Don’t flatter yourself
Don’t flatter yourself
