The World’s Gonna Fall On You Lyrics

[Verse]
Better watch what you're doing Henry you better take it easy sheriff
Somebody might be watching and the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you and the world's going to fall on you
You can't slip around in this town Henry ev'rybody knows ev'rybody sheriff
Somebody's going to tell somebody the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you
You better look over your shoulder sheriff somebody might be watching Henry
You can't tell who's going to see you the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you
You can't slip around in this town ain't no doubt they'll find out
You better stop that better stop now you better not wait be too late
Now who do you think you're fooling Henry ain't nobody here sleeping sheriff
The whole world's watching and the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you
You better watch what you're doing Henry better take it easy sheriff
Somebody might be watching and the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you and the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you
Better look over your shoulder sheriff somebody might be watching Henry
You can't tell who's going to see the world's going to fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you
Now who do you think you're fooling Henry ain't nobody here sleeping sheriff
The whole world's watching and the world's going go fall on you
And the world's going to fall on you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
