Lyrics
Mama always warned me, "Dangers often hide". Mama always told me, "Villains can be kind. Look before you love. And trust before you fall."
You don't seem a sinner. Is my vision clear? Sinners I have known. And their signs I understand. But a man whose eyes show no lies, no blame, no disguise, and no shame, I fear.
