The Statler Brothers
Less of Me (At San Quentin)
[Intro: Johnny Cash & Lew DeWitt]
Now from the state of Virginia again, some fellas that back us up on a lot of our records and personal appearances, and do a wonderful job. They've got another fine song for you. Let's give a big hand to the Statler Brothers
Thank you, John. This particular song as you were singing some of the old ones like "Peace in the Valley" is in the same vein but probably one of the newest, if not the newest in this particular field, it's one that's been written by one of our most popular artists, Glеn Campbell. It's called "Less of Mе"
[Verse 1: The Statler Brothers]
Let me be a little kinder, let me be a little blinder
To the faults of those around me, let me praise a little more
Let me be, when I am weary, just a little bit more cheery
Think a little more of others and a little less of me
[Verse 2: The Statler Brothers]
Let me be a little braver when temptation bids me waver
Let me strive a little harder to be all that I should be
Let me be a little meeker with the brother who is weaker
Think a little more of others and a little less of me
[Verse 3]
Let me be, when I am weary, just a little bit more cheery
Let me serve a little better those that I am striving for
Let me be a little meeker with the brother who is weaker
Think a little more of others and a little less of me
[Outro]
Let me be a little meeker with the brother who is weaker
Think a little more of others and a little less of me
Less of me
