you'd better watch what you do unto others
check how you're treatin your brothers
watch what you say how you walk everyday
cause what goes around comes around
and what goes up's coming down

watch what you say to your sisters
please do no wrong to the misters
don't step on your friends you will trip in the end
cause what goes around comes around
and what goes up's comin down

whatsoever you sow you're gonna reap
be it words be it thoughts be it acts or deeds
we all get paid for what we do today
cause what goes around comes around
and what goes up's comin down


so let goodness and mercy take over(let goodness and mercy take over)
trust in God not a clover(trust in God not a clover)
let love fill your heart you'll be blessed from the start
cause what goes around comes around
and what goes up's comin down

no one escapes this real lesson(no one escapes this real lesson)
make sure that your life is a blessin(make sure that your life is a blessin)
let your light shine everyday all the time
cause what goes around comes around
and what goes up's comin down

oh yes...said what goes around comes around
and what goes up's comin down!
