If I Was You - Dave Elder

If I Was You Lyrics

I'd keep an eye on those who lead
if I was you.
I'd ask them where they're taking me
if I was you.
I'm not trying to tell you what to do,
I'm only saying "If I was you."
I'd listen to that distant drum
if I was you
and wonder how the orders come
if I was you.
I'm not trying to tell you what to do,
I'm only saying "If I was you."
I'd know the colors and the cause
if I was you
before I'd step those marches off
if I was you.

I'm not trying to tell you what to do,
I'm only saying "If I was you."
I'd want to read the bottom line
if I was you
before I'd sign up for a fight
if I was you.
I'm not trying to tell you what to do,
I'm only saying "If I was you."
