On Our Own lyrics
by Bobby Brown



If you want something done, you gotta do it yourself ow

Yeah, I think this gonna be another one of those funky joints.

(On our own)

Heart and soul, d-d-dance



If I was you, and you were me, you oughta be winning

If you want something better, you gotta wanna give your all

'Cause I believe, so much do we, they know we're not kidding

If you feel the same as me, girl, you gotta learn to take a fall



(Bridge)



Now I found out that nothing is given

Don't know where the cards may fall (may fall)

All I know is that we gotta get it

We gotta make it on our own



Well, I guess we're gonna have to take control

(On our own)

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home

(On our own)



Can't you see that all we need to really go get 'em

Gotta make your own decisions,

Gotta go with what you know

There comes a time in our lives, you wanna be bigger

Gotta keep, keep on pushing, gotta learn to take control



(Bridge)



Well I guess we're gonna have to take control

(On our own)

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home

Gotta, gotta take it home.

Gotta, gotta take it home



Ow

Heart and soul, d-d-dance

Ow



(Rap)

Too hot to handle, too cold to hold

They're called the Ghostbusters and they're in control

Had 'em throwing parties for a bunch of children

When all the while, the slime was under the building

So they packed up the crew, got a grip, came quick,

Strapped the proton packs on their backs, and they split

Found out about Vigo, the master of evil

Try to battle my boys? That's not legal



(O-oh) They're in control

(O-oh) Y-y-ya know it

(On our own)

I said they're in control

(O-oh) Y-y-ya know it

(O-oh) Y-y-ya know it

(On our own)



Well, I guess we're gonna have to take control

Gotta, gotta, gotta...Gotta, gotta gotta

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home

Too hot to handle, too cold to hold, they're the Ghostbusters and they're in control



Well, I guess we're gonna have to take control

Gotta, gotta take it home. Gotta, gotta take it home

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home

Gotta, gotta take it home. Gotta, gotta take it home, yeah.



(O-oh) Ow

(O-oh) Y-y-ya know it

(On our own)

(O-oh) Uhh!

(O-oh) Y-y-ya know it

(On our own)



(Rap)



Well I guess we're gonna have to take control...(to fade out)
