Puttin’ and Takin’ Songtext
von The Ink Spots

I′m puttin', puttin′ troubles far behind
Taking, taking all the joys I find
I'm walking, talking to a friendly breeze
Doin', doin′ anything I please

I′m hoping, praying to the lord above
That nothing, ever spoils this life I love

So I'm puttin′, puttin' wear is on the shelf
I′m taking, fun and laughter for myself


Man I'm puttin′, I'm puttin' all my troubles far behind
What you puttin′ em behind for Hoppy?
Cause I′m takin', I′m takin all the joys that I can find
I don't blame you, you don′t live but once
Man don't ya see I′m walking
I'm walking and talking to a friendly breeze
Yeah I can feel the breeze right now
And I'm doing, man I′m doing anything that I please
I don′t blame you Hoppy, I really don't blame ya
The digging, I′m hoping and I'm praying to the lord above
What you praying for man?
That nothin′, nothin' ever spoils this life I love
I know what you′re talking about

That's why I'm puttin′, puttin′ troubles on the shelf
Takin', fun and laughter for myself.
