Rebecca St. James - You Then Me lyrics

rate me

By Bob Halligan, Jr. and Graham Shaw

It's my turn, it's not your turn

It's my turn, get outta my way

It's my turn, go on complain

I'm comin' through anyway

Don't ask me why I'm like this

But lately I'm wonderin' if

It'll come to pass

That the last shall be first and the first shall be last

Then the voice says

Chorus:

Here's the way it oughta be

You then me then you then me

Well, I pray one day we'll all agree

And take it you then me then you then me

Life could go you then methen you then me

It's easy, you wait then go

It's easy, you make your move

It's easy, don't clown around

Could've gone six times by now

But no sir, you gotta be a pain

Or this is your own way of sayin'

We should all cool down

And be more like the man who was born back in Bethlehem town?

I betcha He'd say

Chorus

If we could only put You first

Maybe this ugly trend could one day be reversed

It's your turn, it's not my turn

It's your turn- well let's just say

We'll trade off- first you then me

Then after that, we might agree

Let's try it, it could be good

And what if one day it should

Really come to pass

That the last shall be first and the first shall be last

Betcha we'd say

Chorus
