May you never make your bed out in the cold

Just like a great strong brother of mine, you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back and I know that there's those that do
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind for me

You're just like a good close sister to me and you know that I love you true
You hold no blade to stab me in my back and I know that there's those that do
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind for me

 May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar-room fight
 May you never lose your woman overnight
