Now this tune is all about a girl that's got a good man
But she gonna leave him, to another, for another slick talkin' dude
But I advised her not to burn down the bridge
She might want to come back One, two, three, four! Your mind's set on leavin'
To a house down a one way street
Say you're gonna lock up all the doors
And throw away the key Oh, but don't burn down the bridge, darlin'
You just might want to come back
'Cause the gra** ain't no greener
On the other side of the track Oh, you counted me out, before I could get to bat
All the things are out-ta the Chevrolet
Tomorrow night be drivin' a Cadillac But don't burn down the bridge, darlin'
You just might want to come back
'Cause the gra** ain't no greener
On the other side of the track Hey! All your so called friends
Taught you how to cheat an' lie
Now it seem like you gonna jump
From the fryin' pan to the fire Oh, but don't burn down your bridge, darlin'
You just might want to come back
'Cause the gra** ain't no greener
On the other side of the track Hey! Ha! Thank you! Woo!
Thank you very much!
