Temptations: Kumba ya-ya

Oh my soul, of my whole ya-ya-ya

Price so right, my whole ya-ya-ya



Born into this world a baby,

You're mind is clear as the air

Time passes...

You learn to walk and talk

Time passes...

You learn right from wrong

Time passes...

You leave home seeking a life

Of your own...



I'm tellin' you the natural facts

For way this world

Listen to me people...

You make your own heavens and hell

Right here on earth



I'm tellin' you the natural facts

For way this world

You make you own heaven and hell

Right here on earth

On earth, on earth, on earth...



Time passess...

And your values change

Life becomes a strange, confusing game

Suddenly you want the finer things in life

But you find it takes a lots of hard work

Now you're standing

At the crossroads of life

To satisfy your personal wants...

Will you do wrong

Or will you do right?

Well one thing you must admit,

And you know it's true

The final decision,

Is still up to you



I'm tellin' you the natural facts

For way this world

Listen to me people...

You make your own heaven and hell

Right here on earth

Let me tell you one more time...

I'm tellin' you the natural facts

For way this world

You make your own heaven and hell

Right here on earth



Listen people...

Life is a giant, invisible scale with two sides;

Good and bad

You and your beliefs

Are the weights

The things you do each day

Determine the balance

Your conscience is a flawless

Judge and jury;

The only question is what you want



I'm tellin' you
