What People Say

              

What difference does it make to you

      What people say?

You know the false word from the true

      From day to day.

You know they’ll criticize you, sure;

      If you are bad or good and pure

It’s easy for you to endure

What people say.

Keep on, don’t let it break you down

      What people say;

Don’t let it drive you out of town

What people say;

What people say is seldom true

      Someone has got it in for you;

Forget it, brother. P.D.Q.,

      What people say.
