don't ride your bike off a ramp that's more than three bricks high, don't take that candy from the store if you ain't got the dime, don't pick a fight with the little guy that doesn't talk that much, don't pick up a cherry bomb thinkin its a dud,and don't sneek out of a two story house using bed sheets for a rope. don't ask me how I know.

CHORSE
Sell your truck while its still runnin, save the jesus off the dash, say a prayer when you feel like cussin, save your money pay with cash, forget your pride buy the roses if your sorry tell her so, don't drink the water in mexico. don't ask me how I know.

don't quit your high school football team halfway through the season, don't bust your buddy in the nose when you know he didn't mean it, don't loose the girl you love at home for a night in panama city, don't rush off the phone when your momma calls you ain't that busy, you otta' make that drive to say good bye to your grandpa 'fore he goes. don't ask me how I know.

CHORSE

forget your pride buy the roses if your love her tell her so don't go to vegas when your heart broke, don't bum your cousin for that first smoke, I'm tellin ya don't drink the water in mexico. don't ask me how I know. don't ask me how I know. I just know. Sell your truck while its still runnin', say a prayer when you feel like cussin'. I know.
