Jackie Lomax - (You've Got To) Do It All Yourself Lyrics

Youve got to do it all yourself
In the end there aint no-one else
To give you strength enough to start
Be sure in mind, be pure in heart
Cause youve got to do it all yourself

Youve got to make that call
Stand up straight and tall
Youve got to fight that fall
That long low slide
Like a strong ebb tide
It can wash you out to sea
Dont let it get me

Youve got to do it all yourself
Dont rely on no-one else
To get those things that you say done
If youve got a woman
Try to live two for one
But youve got to do it all yourself

Youve got to make that call
Stand up straight and tall
Youve got to fight that fall
That long low slide
Like a strong ebb tide
It can wash you out to sea
But dont let it get me

It can wash you out to sea
But dont let it get me
It can wash you out to sea
Dont let it get me

It can wash you out to sea
Adrift in the water
Away from the shoreline
Away from your lifeline
Alone on a freeway
Alone on a subway
Alone in the airways

Youve got to do it all alone
