Story Behind The Song

Man means mind, the human intellect. To a great extent, you control you. Check out what you are thinking, feeling, saying, doing, seeing, hearing, etc. Take one day at a time, and don't count the days... make the days count.

Song Description

Life can be overwhelming. Don't let it get you down. Control your thoughts, your words and all your activities.

Lyrics

Easy Does It

Easy does it, gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, got no time to waste my time
Easy does it, gotta work, gotta tow the line
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time

Check out what you're doing and how you spend your day
You better hold on to the handle or you're bound to lose your way

Easy does it, you gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious mind
Gotta use your precious time

Check out where you're going and where you're coming from
Don't look behind just glance aside and see what others done

Everybody say easy does it
You gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious time,
Gotta use your precious mind

Check out what you're thinking and how that thought arose
Check out everything you feel even though nobody knows
Check out what you're saying and who you say it to
Don't lie don't make no alibis, they'll just all come back to you

Everybody, easy does it
You gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious time
Gotta use your precious mind

Check out what you're eating 'cause you are what you eat
Check out what you're drinking and you better check with whom you sleep
Check out what you're reading and who wrote what you read
You'd better know just who you're listening to and whose words you ought to heed

I said, easy does it
You gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious time
Yeah, you gotta use your precious mind

Check out what you're seeing even though you have your rights
You better check out what you're looking at or you might just lose your sight

Everybody, easy does it
You gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious mind
Gotta use your precious time



Check out what you're doing and who you do it to
You'd better know you've got to do to me what you'd have me do to you

Everybody, easy does it
You gotta take one day at a time
Easy does it, gotta face this day and time
Gotta work, gotta tow the line
Yeah, you gotta use your precious mind
Gotta use your precious time

Easy does it
Easy does it
Easy does it
Easy does it
