Help Yourself Lyrics - Joan Armatrading - Joan Armatrading

If you're gonna do it do it right 

Don't leave it overnight 

If you're gonna help me help me now 

Another ten minutes will be too late 

Like a crying child 

I need comfort now 

Don't pick me up 

When the tears are dry on my face 

Need someone to help me 

But not you, you're not ready 

Seems you have trouble helping yourself

It takes time to notice 

But you don't seem to know time keeps moving 

What you're doing is wasting my time 

You would help me more 

Help me more if you helped yourself 

Help yourself 

Help yourself 

You wanna get yourself together 

Don't you wanna put yourself to right 

I said get yourself together 

Don't you wanna put yourself to right 

I said no, don't apologise 

You've done your best 

Seems it still ain't right 

Leave me alone 

No more to be said 

To get it right you got to do it yourself

I'm going out to help myself 

Help myself 

Help myself 

I'm going out to help myself 

Help myself 

Help myself 

If you're gonna say it say it now 

Don't leave it overnight 

If you're gonna hold me hold me tight 

I don't wanna leave 

Not if it seems all right 

Like a crying child 

I need comfort now 

Don't pick me up 

When the tears are dry on my face 

You've got to govern the situation 

Nut not you, you're no 

And anyway, hold up 

Hold up 

Hold up 

You're trying to sort out your mind 

You've got to get it together 

You've got to get it together 

It would help me more 

Help more if you helped yourself
