GOLDEN RULE, THE
(Campbell / Mason / Turner)


'Cile Turner - 1959





You gotta live your life by the golden rule
You gotta live your life by the golden rule
You gotta live your life by the golden rule
That's what you've gotta do

You gotta love your neighbours by the golden rule
You gotta love your neighbours by the golden rule
You gotta love your neighbours by the golden rule
That's what you've gotta do

You gotta treat your friends by the golden rule
You gotta treat your friends by the golden rule
You gotta treat your friends by the golden rule
That's what you've gotta do

(Do unto others, do, do, do)
(Just the way you want 'em to do to you)

You gotta build your home by the golden rule
You gotta build your home by the golden rule
You gotta build your home by the golden rule
That's what you've gotta do

You know that old time religion is the golden rule
You know that old time religion is the golden rule
You know that old time religion is the golden rule
And it's good enough for me

Now, if you wanta go to Heaven, try the golden rule
If you wanta go to Heaven, try the golden rule
If you wanta go to Heaven, try the golden rule
That's what you've gotta do

Love one another by the golden rule
The world must love one another by the golden rule
The world must love one another by the golden rule
That's what you've gotta, ev'rybody's gotta, all of us gotta do
