You`ve Been Around Too Long Lyrics

YOU'VE BEEN AROUND TOO LONG

by Carole King



Oooh, I hear you say attitudes and times 

   have changed

And I know the feeling-it's long overdue

You say this is a time to right old wrongs

Tell me now, if it's true

You got the mind, you got the time

How long are you gonna wait to do

   what you want to do now



You've been around too long

Not to notice what's going on in town

You've got to understand

I'm taking my life in my own hands

And gaining ground-look around



Peace of mind

You got yours.I want mine

If you really want to do right by me

See what you wnat to see

But let me be what I want to be



Cause you've been around too long

Not to realize what's going on inside

I'm just like you

I'm doing the best that I can do

   to make my stride
