If You Don't Do It (Someone Else Will)

Story Behind The Song

Began as a bass riff. I improvised the vocal melody over the riff. I looked in my book of lyric ideas and saw I had written the common phrase: If you don't do it someone else will. That seemed to fit the music.

Lyrics

Do you have an idea or invention
Would you like to be a millionaire
Why don't you do something about it
Get up what are you waiting for

Chorus:
If you don't do it someone else will

Don't think your idea's are foolish
Every idea's worth exploring
Henry Ford, Wright Brothers, Edison
They followed their dreams so can you

Chorus:
If you don't do it someone else will

Have you a song that could be a hit
But you don't know where to turn for help
Send it to us and we'll critique it
Please enclose ten dollars per song

Chorus:
If you don't do it someone else will
