Don't be careless with you darling if you love him don't let him down

If you're faithful he won't leave you lost and wasted the way I am

Walk softly on the bridges that you're crossing

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

Be careful not to slam the door behind you

You may need to knock upon his door again



When temptation flirts and whispers come and taste my lips they're sweet as wine

If you weaken you'll be chatin' on your own heart like I did mine

Walk softly on the bridges...
