Don't be careless with you darling

If you love her don't let her down

If you're faithful she won't leave you

Lost and wasted the way I am.



Walk softly on the bridges that you're crossing

Don't break her heart then cry cause it won't mend

Be careful not to slam the door behind you

You may want to knock upon her door again.



--- Instrumental ---



When temptation flirts and whispers come

And taste my lips they're sweet as wine

If you weaken you'll be cheatin' on

Your own heart like I did mine.



Walk softly on the bridges that you're crossing

Don't break her heart then cry cause it won't mend

Be careful not to slam the door behind you

You may want to knock upon her door again...
