Have a Little Talk With Myself - Ray Stevens

Lately I have noticed all my friends avoidin' me

And that girl who loves me up and said goodbye

My whole world is comin' apart and fallin' in on me

And I guess deep down I know the reason why

Lately I’ve been livin' for nobody else but me

Lettin' my selfish ego take command

Lately I’ve been givin' in to pride and vanity

And I guess I let it get the upper hand

And I think it’s just about time to

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

A little private conversation

A little self-examination

A little attitude correction

A little soul-search and inspection

Start headin' in the right direction

Take a little walk (take a little walk)

Have a little talk with myself

Do do do do do do do do do

Uh-uh-huh Do do do do do do

I put importance on the wrong things in this life

And my outlook had a twisted point of view

But all you reap with vanity is a heartache and strife

Without love and friendship you can’t make it through

And I think it’s just about time to

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

A little private conversation

A little self-examination

A little attitude correction

A little soul-search and inspection

Start headin' in the right direction

Analyze it, recognize it

Itemize it, criticize it

Realize (realize)

Organize (organize)

Summarize (summarize)

Ostracize it

Take a little walk (take a little walk)

Have a little talk with myself

Do do do do do do do do do

Uh-uh-huh Do do do do do do

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

Yes I’m going to have to

Have a little talk with myself

(Have a little talk with myself)

A little private conversation

A little self-examination…
