First time I left home
|
Here's the words that my dad said to me
|
He said sit down son
|
Don't take curves
|
Doin' 90 miles an hour
|
Or you will end up upside down
|
If you really like her
|
Don't forget the flowers
|
The first time and every time you take her out
|
I've been around the block
|
And I know what's 'round the corner
|
|
Choose your words wisely
|
Cause you can't take 'em back
|
Once they've broken someone's heart
|
Just because your friend does
|
Doesn't mean you have to
|
It's what sets the two of you apart
|
I've been around the block
|
And I know what's 'round the corner
|
|
Don't pretend to know it all
|
When you don't know a thing
|
And know your way around it
|
Before you throw your hat into the rain
|
And don't commit to somethin'
|
If you can't follow through
|
And your past will always catch up with you
|
I've been around the block
|
And I know what's 'round the corner
|
|
Always call your mama
|
When you say you gonna
|
While she's still here for you to call
|
And don't forget the man upstairs
|
In your darkest hour
|
He's a pick me up every time you fall
|
I've been around the block
|
And I know what's 'round the corner
|
|
I've been around the block
|
And I know what's 'round the corner
|
I'm in your corner
|
|
I've been around the block
|
Enough to know what's 'round the corner
|
What's around the corner [x2]
