Bobby Brown - On Our Own Lyrics






If want something done, gotta do it yourself

Yeah, I think this is gonna be another one of those funky ones
Heart & soul, da da dance

If I was you, and you were me, you'd wanna be winnin'
If you want somethin' bad, yo, you gotta wanna give your all
'Cause I believe so much in we and no we're not kiddin'
If you feel the same as me, yo, you gotta want to take the ball

Now I found out that nothin' is given
Don't know where the cards may fall
All I know is that we've gotta get it
We've gotta make it on our own

Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
(All on our own)
If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
(All on our own)

Now can't you see that all we need to be a go getter
Gotta make your own decisions, you gotta go for what you know
It comes a time in our lives, you wanna be bigger
Gotta keep keep on pushing, you gotta learn to take control, yeah

Now I found out that nothin' is given
Don't know where the cards may fall
All I know is that we've gotta get it
We've gotta make it on our own

Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
(All on our own)
If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
(All on our own)

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

Heart & soul, da da dance

Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
They're called the Ghost busters and they're in control
Had 'em throwin' a party for a bunch of children
While all of the while the slime was under the building

So they packed up their group, got a grip, came equipped
Grabbed they Proton packs off their back and they split
Found about Vigo, the master of evil
Try to battle my boys? That's not legal

(Oh-we-oh)
They're in control
(Oh-we-oh)
Ya ya ya know it
(All on our own)

I said, they're in control
(Oh-we-oh)
Ya ya ya know it
(Oh-we-oh)
Ya ya ya know it
(All on our own)

Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
(All on our own)
We got, we got, we got
We got, we got, we got

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
(All on our own)
Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
They're the Ghost busters and they're in control

Well I guess we're gonna have to take control
(All on our own)
Gotta, gotta, take it home
Gotta, gotta take it home

If it's up to us, we've got to take it home
(All on our own)
Gotta, gotta, take it home
Gotta, gotta, gotta take it home

Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
They're called the Ghost busters and they're in control
Had 'em throwin' a party for a bunch of children
While all of the while the slime was under the building

So they packed up their group, got a grip, came equipped
Grabbed they Proton packs off their back and they split
Found about Vigo, the master of evil
Try to battle my boys? That's not legal

  45. G.... O....

    There is a divide of people in the world, the disgusting peasents and the True people of this world!

  46. G.... O....

    Wait I have a question why at that time of age people loved trump then all of the sudden people hated him? I don't get it? I'm in Sweden btw!

    G.... O....

    Media propaganda.

    G.... O....

    Biased and fake news

    G.... O....

    @Kevin Sitek well said.

    G.... O....

    @Kevin Sitek he's not perfect by any means and anyone that voted for him knew what they were getting. He shoots from the hip, he's not a career politician and he's exactly the same person he has ever been.....and that's what people that voted for him wanted.

    G.... O....

    @Brian Bianco not sure how much you follow Canadian politics. Probably either very little or not at all. The double standard is ridiculous. I remember the "grab 'em by the pussy" comments from Trump that leaked and he was an instantly labeled a misogynist. Which was two guys having a beer and talking shop. I've played on many sports teams and work in a welding shop and heard far worst in locker rooms. Everyone said his comments were inexcusable. Fast forward a few years and our current Prime Minister is caught on video multiple times dressed in black face and all of a sudden, well " it was a different time..."

  47. R.... K....

    1:01 what's all that noise up there ... OMG call the cops

  48. t.... ....

    Aww.it reminds me if my childhood...yes im. Old

  49. C.... W....

    Who's ready for Ghostbusters 3?

  50. C.... W....

    When Superman could walk and pre-collision trump.

  51. w.... ....

    Woke up with this song playing in my head... I dunno why, haven't seen GB in decades
    BB is the king

  52. r.... j....

    1 min in we got a full floating apparition get him before he heads to White House

  53. M.... ....

    Trump @ 1:02

  54. T.... B....

    Donald Trump, and Christopher Reeves. Man this video aged like milk.

  55. D.... ....

    Watching Ghostbusters 2 right now and this song came on!!!I love this so much soooooo 80s

  56. J.... S....

    The Young Donald Trump!!!!!!!!!!l!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  57. C.... C....

    Trumps nightmare a blackman on his property, R.I.P Christopher Reeve.

    C.... C....

    But didn't Kanye meet Trump at Trump Tower? Dumb libtard

    C.... C....

    @Young Yeeter Take a deep breath 😉 he was using Kanye do you think he would have anything to do with Kanye if he wasn't a influential figure to help his public image, btw I am not liberal I'm a realist who doesn't hate trump but calls him for what he is which is s great businessman, publist but a racist never the less.

  58. T.... M....

    Like the music but hate that racist Putin Trump is in it. But it's only for a few moment so it's not too bad. I'll edit him out in my version so it will be more watchable.

    T.... M....

    Look up Operation Mockingbird... The CIA is manipulating people. There's a reason the media went after Tulsi Gabbard, there's a reason the DNC screwed Bernie Sanders out of the nomination, and there's a reason the deep state and media hate Trump. What do those 3 canidates have in common? They all lean towards being isolationists.

    CIA / Deep State ~ Media ~ Military-industrial complex. All one in the same.

  59. Y.... ....

    Oh GOD, you're watching and the second celebrity is TRUMP, fuck....

    Love this song though, dislike woman beater Bobby Brown though....

    Y.... ....

    You must be thinking of Chris Brown --- Bobby Brown only was charged once for battery back in the early 2000's. Chris is a serial violent offender.

  60. L.... H....

    Trump hair has always been fucked up. LLS

  61. B.... A....

    So uplifting

  62. H.... H....

    This song is ameizing! 👍

  63. j.... h....

    Some people love to take shots at Bobby and how his life has been since his heyday, but the guy sure knew what beats to grab hold of (and add his personal touch to make them into great jams)

  64. J.... F....

    Cant wait for the new goastbusters. Look at trump lol thats when everyone loved him

  65. M.... F....

    Trump what

  66. N.... M....

    Trump is in this video lol

  67. E.... M....

    Bobby was a helluva showman, I must admit. Back when MTV meant music TV.

  68. C.... ....

    You know this is old when you have Rick Moranis, Trump, and Christopher Reeve in your music video... and Bobby Brown is the dude singing, and not a Spanish teen girl.

  69. A.... ....

    What an AWESOME song! I was just 5.5 years old when Ghostbusters 2 came out on theaters, then I clearly remember it coming out on VHS in November 1989 when it was near my 6th birthday on December 7, 1989. Watching the movie at home on top of loving the cartoon The Real Ghostbusters, I was a joyful little kid in 1989/1990. I miss those days...

    A.... ....

    Andrew we’re the same age. I turned 6 on October of that year, and I remember being part of this weeklong summer camp, and the counselors took us to see it in the theaters in the summer of ‘89.

  70. R.... S....

    1:02 is that Donald Trump dude wow on the the music video

  71. G.... A....

    The best there is ever KING Bobby Brown... He had the 80s-90s to himself, he was unstoppable until his marriage to Whitney that killed his career...

  72. E.... G....

    Cant even run n hide n past to get away from trump🤦🤣🤣🤣🤣

    E.... G....

    I hated him then as much as td

  73. j.... ....

    love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  74. I.... C....

    JOEY 💗💗💗

  75. L.... L....

    I wish artists made videos in NYC still 😐

  76. S.... !....

    President Trump was cool back then.

    S.... !....

    He still is, you think the racist president would willingly show up in this guy's video if he was actually racist?

    Look up Operation Mockingbird. The CIA is manipulating people. There's a reason the DNC screwed over Bernie Sanders, there's a reason the media hates Tulsi Gabbard, and there's a reason the deep state and media hate Trump. What do those 3 have in common? They all lean towards being isolationists.

    Media / CIA / Deep State / Military-industrial complex. All one in the same.

  77. R.... W....

    Nyc 1989 what a town

  78. T.... ....

    I watch this at least once a month.

  79. l.... ....

    The proton pack is not a toy.

  80. �.... ....

    TRUMP TOWER AD DETECTED!!!!!

  81. d.... ....

    Such a wonderful song brings back so many memories of my childhood. Life was so much simpler much more personal

  82. D.... R....

    Who's here after the afterlife trailer

  83. F.... S....

    This young man was at the top of his game back then and now his net worth is sad. Come on Bobby you still have it bring some more tracks.

  84. C.... C....

    I don't give a damn what nobody says....Bobby B was the mf man in his prime!

  85. M.... E....

    The chorus....ahhh ahhh ahhhh ahhhhh

  86. J.... S....

    Afterlife better have a decent music score. These first two films had the perfect music to go with them.

  87. E.... R....

    Anyone today?

  88. R.... H....

    There was a time when non disney movie soundtracks sold IN THE MILLIONS.

  89. M.... G....

    Bobby Brown at his best 😊

  90. R.... ....

    Not being political... but appearing in this video is just another reason Trump triggered nostalgia and warm feelings of the 80’s in many, who then voted for him. #memberberries.

  91. M.... ....

    I came back to see this video because of the new Ghostbusters: AFTERLIFE movie.

  92. J.... V....

    Who’s watching this video knowing that Trump might be impeached 😂

    J.... V....

    I'm watching it knowing he won't. But you can keep tricking yourself into believing that the Democrats have any power to do anything. Everything they're doing is backfiring in their faces. Basically par for the course of everything they've tried to do for the last 3yrs....lol! They remind me of Wiley Coyote 😆

    J.... V....

    I'm watching knowing he isn't going a damn place...Voting for his ass again next year

    J.... V....

    @Jason Strom like the lyrics say"we got to take control and that's EXACTLY what us TRUE patriots hired him to do

  93. J.... V....

    One of the best Summer songs ☀️ 😎

  94. H.... M....

    I am hoping they play this song in the end credits in ghostbusters afterlife

  95. M.... T....

    Busta Rhymes' "Break ya neck" video cameos were inspired by this video

  96. C.... G....

    Non stop pop fm anyone?

  97. j.... l....

    C'est une bombe atomic ce titre
    Bobby brown a une super discographie
    Tout ces albums sont des bombes!

  98. M.... B....

    Who’s here after Ghostbusters Afterlife trailer? No one. Cause I’m the only dope
    Millennial that appreciates the originals. Lol

  99. C.... B....

    Right here after seeing the new Ghostbusters trailer!! Can't wait!
