Lyrics

I was standing all alone wondering where I went wrong
But it?s a little bit late since my baby?s done gone
My old pappy said son let me give you a little advice
Share a few things to help you make it through life

He said don?t worry boy bout what could have been
Yesterday?s gone, it?ll never happen again
So grab on to the future, hold on with both hands
You gotta make it work, you don?t get many a chance

Chorus
Now you can?t not do what you done did
You can?t not go where you done been
And you can?t unsay what you already said
So be careful my buddy how you make you bed

Yes be careful my buddy how you make your bed
You may have to lie in it till the day you?re dead
Living all alone can be a terrible dread
So be careful my buddy how you make your bed.

You go to be careful what you do and say
You don?t have forever to make it OK
So take your stand and act like a man
And always do the very best that you can

You can?t have something when there?s not any more
You can?t unspill it when it?s all over the floor
So choose your partner and play a fair game
Then you will see what true love can bring

Chorus
Now you can?t not do what you done did
You can?t not go where you done been
And you can?t unsay what you already said
So be careful my buddy how you make your bed

Yes be careful my buddy how you make your bed
You may have to lie in it till the day you?re dead
Living all alone can be a terrible dread
So be careful my buddy how you make your bed
